As pointed out in https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3101#c4 which links to a page that links to http://robilad.livejournal.com/90792.html linux distributions are no longer licensed to distribute sun/oracle java packages.
If you are using the sun/oracle version of java, you should follow the instructions at http://www.java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml to get the latest security updates for java installed. Regards, Dave Hodgins
