SuSE package java-1_4_2-sun-plug-in by means of YaST2.
Is this another of those packages that are on the DVD but not the cd set? YaST doesn't find it on my CDs ...
I can't tell you, as I don't possess the 9.2 DVD. But if YaST can't find the package on tge CD set, this is probably the case.
Anyway, you can download it easily enough, now that 9.2 is available via ftp. I have just seen the package at: ftp://suse.cs.utah.edu/pub/suse.com/suse/i386/9.2/suse/i586/java-1_4_2-sun- plugin-1.4.2.06-1.1.i586.rpm It's about 792 KB.
Thanks Andreas, my local mirror isn't populated with 9.2 yet, and I didn't check others. Got the file now, thanks for your help Best Fergus
Looking at the ftp directory I saw that there is also a java-1_4_2-sun-jdbc-1.4.2.06-1.1.i586.rpm package. So it seems as if the Java package from the standard install didn't include the JDBC database access functionality, either. So if you need it, better install that one, too.
Makes me wonder why SuSE would split the Java distribution in several packages...
