Why should someone have 2 java SDKs/VMs installed on a system? How can one expect that 
these would not mess around?

I suppose that SUN makes the Java installation to remove any previous Java SDKs/VMs 
installed, because they can not guarantee that everything will work as it should. In other 
words I think it is not a bug, but a feature.

I think SL must update to the latest stable Java update, that is 1.5.0_11 currently, or to 
the latest of 1.4.2 series, 1.4.2_13 currently. Any removal of any preexisting SDK/VM is a 
  SUN Java issue and not an SL issue.


That's what I think.
