This is not specifically a CentOS question but it relates to a problem I 
  am having on CentOS-3.  I though someone here might have come across 
something similar before.

I use the JPackage provided java-1.4.2-sun-compat but it has recently 
switched arch from noarch to i586.  Yum understandably refuses to 
upgrade this package.

Should I bother with yum or just upgrade it manually?

John.
