I've installed java-1.6.0-openjdk (from EPEL) on a CentOS 5.2 x86_64 system and see that it has not registered itself with alternatives.
First, is there a reason I should know about that it does not set itself up as an alternative?
But second, if I was to configure it myself, the syntax is
alternatives --install link name path priority ... and other optional stuff
Looking at other examples, I'm not clear on the difference between link and path in this command
