I've added a layer of '>''s to mark the part of your message that was a

messages in a similar way, that would help readability.

The jpackage Java RPMs require that you grab the Sun (or other) compiler 
as a tarball and the jpackage nosource RPM, then build the RPMs yourself. 
The instructions are on the jpackage.org site.

I'm using (slightly older, slightly modified) jpackage Sun RPMs with Sun's 
1.5.0_01 source, and they are working fine.
