Hey is there any reason I wouldn't be able to install two versions of the java sdk?

I have java2 installed and when I went to install Staroffice it wouldn't recognize that version. The SuSE manual and yast both say that java 1.1.8 needs to be installed.

Any ideas?

An additional annoyance. I need to run Sun's version of java (1.2.x) for a program I have written. Blackdown's java 1.1.8 does not support all the methods of 1.2.x. I thus have chosen not to have 1.1.8 installed. However, I do have StarOffice installed. Every time I add something new or upgrade, Yast sticks 1.1.8 back in. John.
