Hmm, maybe you should file a bug to the jpackage people. My 1.4/1.5/1.6 came from http://java.sun.com/ - 1.5 and 1.6 are x86_64, 1.4 is i686, and they don't have any gtk/cairo shared libraries. The sun jdk's from sun don't play nice with the "alternative" system though (whereas the jpackage does). As a long term strategy , sun jdk 1.7 and gcj came with fedora 8. gcj starts to work quite well, so it might be a good idea to support that too. <snipped> > Solaris 10 has Gtk2 but not cairo (which is relevant as R will have a > cairo-based version of X11). Gtk(2?) is an "offical" optional add-on to Tru64. (mostly just because mozilla needs it, I think...)
