The command you're looking for is update-alternatives --auto java you might try javac and javaplugin as well, if you have the java-*sun-devel and java*-sun-plugin packages installed. This will switch the alternative to the auto state, so the alternative will be maintained by this script and ever point to one of installed binaries.

The most easy way how to fix that is rpm -r --nodeps java-1_6_0-sun java-1_6_0-openjdk (add devel and plugin subpackages if you wish) and then install it again. It's not easy to fix the file on your own, sorry.
