Comment 2 Lukáš Zachar 2011-08-17 12:17:36 UTC 
With jre only, the java binary is located in
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jre/bin/java
Comment 3 Lukáš Zachar 2011-08-17 12:44:48 UTC 
There is similar problem with java plugin in BZ#731358
Comment 7 jiri vanek 2011-08-17 14:45:29 UTC 
When quick-fix is quite easy and although also harmless, i suggest not to respin, and use this fix only when somebody complains.  Because it is very rare to have installed java without devel package.
