We rsync our updates from SL and then move the java ones into a separate
repo to avoid recent problems with unsigned packages.
We then sign them with rpm v3, which with Sun java rpms is often the
only way.
Problem solved.

P.P.S. I am puzzled why yum does not have the obvious improvement,

you install 100 packages and yum does not like 1 of them, it still

the 99 packages it is happy with.
That would be nice, though it isn't trivial to work out which
of the 99 will work without the 1. Worst case you could degenerate
into an n-squared dependency search.
