Hello,
It seems that the x86_64 version of jdk on SL5 actually has a browser
plugin now.
java-1.6.0-sun-compat has been updated to put the x86_64 java plugin
into the x86_64 firefox plugin area.
Note: The x86_64 java plugin is called libnpjp2.so
To test or update

Hello,
There is a new security update for jdk (the java from sun).
We have put this update into the testing area, so that if people want to
install the update by hand they can.
This update will go out on Monday, November 17, 2009
Note: jdk-1.6.0_17-fcs.x86_64.rpm is not signed, and we cannot sign it
without breaking it.
