Hi,
we have SuSE SLES 7 running on VM 4.2. We need to have the Java JDK 1.3.1
installed, which we are confident of doing, but unfortunately it needs
glibc 2.2.4 or higher which seems trickier. We were hoping that a rpm for
S390 would be available, but we can't spot one. I've looked at the
listserv for clues, and I've noticed some people compiling it from
scratch. I'd appreciate any advice on how we should proceed with this.

Thanks,
John.

John,

Unless you have a maintenance/support contract with SuSE or IBM, or one of
their business partners, you're on your own.  You might seriously want to
consider spending the money, based on the amount of (CPU) time and effort it
takes to keep up with stuff like this.
