always

Expected results:
The package also provides "java = 1:1.6.0"

Comment 2 Deepak Bhole 2015-02-05 09:47:22 EST

Hi, this is intentional. On RHEL-7, OpenJDK6 is provided strictly for legacy, self-contained 3rd party applications. The missing java provision ensures that it will not accidentally satisfy a dependency for base RHEL packages.
