Hallo all,
as you might know, Oracle have announced the end of general support for jdk6 in November 2012. In order to have maintenable system, we have to follow and switch to jdk7 as well.
I have just sumbitted the java-1_7_0-openjdk to Java:openjdk6:Factory - this release is based on icedtea-2.1, openjdk b147 and should be an equivalent of Oracle Java 7 u2.
Hi Michal, Installing this package in 12.1 alongside java-1_6_0-openjdk leaves 1_6_0 as the default since it has a higher priority in /etc/alternatives. /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/java - priority 17105 /usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk/bin/java - priority 17100 Is this intended? Also, java -version outputs OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea7 2.0) (SUSE LINUX build 1.7.0_147-icedtea-b147) Which seems to indicate that it is based on icedtea-2.0, rather than 2.1 as you wrote.
