Comment 3 peter czanik 2005-11-20 19:19:22 UTC 
Seems to work (for me) fine on 10.0, except for the browser plugin.
Comment 4 Daniel Bornkessel 2006-01-26 16:45:11 UTC 
Added package ... closing bug
Comment 5 peter czanik 2006-02-03 11:41:31 UTC 
I can't find this package on SUSE Linux 10.1 beta3 _PPC_. Not even in Extra. Where is it?
Comment 7 Andreas Jaeger 2006-02-07 12:53:40 UTC 
We're not allowed to distribute the IBM Java packages, there's nothing that we can do.
Comment 8 peter czanik 2006-02-21 20:03:18 UTC 
Not even the old one (1.4.2), which was working fine in 10.0? That was in the base system, not in the 'Extra' installation source.
