Packages sun-java5-jdk, sun-java5-jre, sun-java6-jdk, sun-java6-jre will 
install either the jdk (if you want to write programs, includes the jre) 
or the jre (if you just want to run them) for either Java5 or Java6.

Wulf Credo:
Respect the elders. Teach the young. Co-operate with the pack.
Play when you can. Hunt when you must. Rest in between.
Share your affections. Voice your opinion. Leave your Mark.
