: So, to recap what's happening, when auto updates happen, the jdk gets updated, and while Tomcat keeps running, code that accesses the Timezone data starts throwing errors.
I would really like it if the JDK did NOT install automatically. I suppose an acceptable compromise would be if tomcat is installed, to not do it automatically.
I've run into this problem many times myself.
I've locked the java packages from updating using zypp.conf and update it manually when convenient.
The current behaviour of updating java without a warning is indeed a bit dangerous.
Hi, as I wrote in bnc#466078 I thought that was a jpackage.org compliant way, so I never fixed that. But after investigating of jpackage.org and other (rpm) distributions I found that this is a bug in SUSE Java packaging. The java-1_6_0-sun was submitted and this version will be installed into %{_libdir}/jvm/java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0/, which is equivalent of jpackage or Fedora way. Unfortunately all new JVM packages in SUSE was derived from some older one, so it's hard to fix it, because it's just everywhere.
