Then it's time to bug him again.

Well, other distros might have better java packing, or a dedicated
java person might be able to fix it, or maybe the LSR source
tarball is out of date... there's a ton of reasons why this could
be failing.

If anybody wants to take this on -- and I'm really not looking at
