Re: [CentOS] Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel for Oracle Linux!!!

Top posting, I'll apologize also.

Hey, I appreciate the moderation - I've mentioned before, the general
Redhat list, we've gotten spams, and it takes days or weeks before the
alleged moderator gets around to answering a number of us and does
something.

You're right - they've announced unbreakable unbreakable linux, u^2 linux.


But then, you have heard that in the latest release of Sun's, er, Oracle's
java, they changed the identifier to read Oracle, rather than Sun
Microsystems, and for some idiot java (sorry, I repeat myself) reason, a
fair number of packages out there, including ALL VERSIONS OF ECLIPSE for
the last 3-4 years, break, because they can't find those magic words,
rather than just looking at versions...?
