Additional info:
This is intentional. In F16, Java 6 is the primary VM and the requirement that satisfies packages that needs Java: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Java7TechPreview#Detailed_Description You can still use Java 7 for all your needs by setting it as the alternative (alternatives --config java|javac), but 6 but be installed alongside.
Ok, fair enough.
