It's not openSUSE fault that Oracle decided that no one else could redistribute their JVM implementation; if you want to use it, you gotta run according to their rules... And their rules are quite easy... install the bloody thing and use 'alternatives'. If it's not friendly with zypper, you gotta ring Oracle bells, not ours... Only them can change it.
We can't introduce mechanisms that will bring hellish situation to users for the sake of software we can't support... It's nothing technical about it, it's legal and good sense :)
I suspect that before oracle changed the license of java, they produced the same type of "bad package", which openSUSE adapted. Producing a fake package would be as bad now as before, so forgive me if I don't understand why can't be produced. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
