Hello, I have quite a few issues with the default OpenJdk package on CentOS 5.4 x86_64 (e.g. crash of Eclipse [1], and now excessive permgen memory requirement causing the JVM to freeze and requiring a kill -9). These issues do not appear with a local build of the latest stable IcedTea [2], so I am considering using a more recent version of the JVM (I am not running Red Hat certified Java apps). Does anyone know of ongoing efforts to provide recent versions of the JDK as (S)RPMs? I found some in CentOS Testing [3] but they date back from July 2008 and are b09 whereas current is b16. Thanks in advance for any hints!
