Problem installing IBM Java SDK.....

[Derick Centeno]

Hi James:
The quick answer is to use yum and only yum as it handles all dependency
and installation issues.  Proceed as follows:
yum update yum  //this updates yum to it's latest version
yum search ibm* //this gets yum to find any package with ibm's name
                //a listing will print out regarding what is available
                //and what is installed.  Examine the list.  You may 
                //choose to install more than ibmjava; if so do
yum install ibm*
                //if you want ibmjava and all the dependencies that go
                //with it do
yum install ibmjava*

Either of the last two commands will include the installation of ibmjava
without resorting to using rpm.

Best wishes, Derick.
