this is what I do - remove old one and install new one. though to be on safe
side i have a ;ink /usr/java pinting to the bin directory of whatever
version i install. That way I provide this path to any software that relies
upon java ( they always see /usr/java/bin ). Forexample I have used this
technique with Oracle 9i tools.

Has anyone installed the latest and greatest JRE? I just did and
found
that the RPM package installed, I did an upgrade instead of an install,
but I don't see any files for it and it didn't seem to upgrade
anything. Should I blow the existing version away (1.4.2) and install
1.5 fresh?
