I'm a little confused about all this so please be gentle.
I'm looking for a JRE to use as a plugin for Firefox. In the past I
would have just hooked into the jre pluggin supplied with Sun's Java,
but since I'm testing the current fedora 4 development and it seems that
FC4 intends to do without the need for Sun's Java (I could be wrong)
could someone tell me what package I'm supposed to install to get a JRE
for firefox (and any other steps I might need to perform).
If you want a JRE that will be compatible with FC4 then use one of the
nosrc.rpm files from
http://www.jpackage.org/. The Red Hat Java team
are collaborating with the JPackage team so FC4 should work ok.
