I did an apt-get update java1 libODBC to try to avoid that, but it didn't work any differently than an apt-get update, so I bailed. - The following versions apply: - - 7.3: - RPMS.base/java2-1.3.1-85.i386.rpm - RPMS.base/unixODBC-2.0.5-117.i386.rpm - - 8.0: - RPMS.base/java2-1.3.1-372.i386.rpm - RPMS.base/unixODBC-2.1.1-190.i386.rpm There is more than that in a SuSE 8.0 i386 base install.
