Hi,

Sun released Java 1.5.0 today and I would like to install the new Java 1.5.0
JDK and JRE (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp) on my SuSE 9.1
Prof. box. The installed Java version is 1.4.2_03 (installed from the SuSE
DVD).

Since I don't need 1.4 any more, I guess I just uninstall this version,
download the RPM-file from Sun and install it using YaSt. Is this ok or
will I have problems with this RPM-file (do the directories match?)?

Thanks for your help,
Stefan
