Unless all jpackage packages have a higher epoch or version, simply
Most will have a higher version as the effort making things rhug frienndly
takes a lot of time.
removing FC2 packages will be problematic to maintain because any
package management tool (up2date, yum, apt, etc.) will be confused by
the situation.
This is a really the first test case Fedora Alternatives I think, although to
some extent implemenatations can co-exist with /usr/share/java and symlinks.
The right people seem to be talking on jpackage-discuss - don't panic ;)
