You may remember my plea for assistance for help with installing the JDK and all the archiving problems I had. I was wondering if there was a concerted effort, anywhere, to create RPMs of the latest releases.
 
Because my office network and CD writer, in a concerted attempt, do not wish me to copy any file that ends with .tar or .bz2 I settled for a jdk1.7 RPM and had no problems with it at all.
 
I know it is a bit selfish of me to ask for RPMs, and not more generic distributions, but if it helps anyone to put java on their machine then it can only be a good thing.
 
If someone knows of any method for generating RPMs I might have a go myself.
 
Thanks.
 
James.
