Hi there,
I have RH 7.3 's Java packages (j2re-1_3_1_03-linux-i386-rpm, and
j2sdk-1_3_1_03-linux-i386-rpm) installed--do they work well with Swarm?
NO
or I should get rid of them and install the Sun java tarball in
/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.0? Can I find j2sdk1.4.0 from Sun's website?
YES
www.javasoft.com
Given Java installed, what I need to do is to download and install the
following rpm's regardless of what are in "Parent Directory" in
http://lark.cc.ku.edu/~pauljohn/Swarm/Swarm-2.2x_RPMSforRH7.3/ ?
You need
YES> 1. hdf5-1.4.3-1RH73.i386.rpm
YES> 2. swarm-2.1.140.20020514-1.i386.rpm
NO> 3. swarm-2.1.140.20020514-1.src.rpm
MAYBE> 4. swarm-gcjswarm-2.1.140.20020514-1.i386.rpm
YES> 5. swarm-jdk-2.1.140.20020514-1.i386.rpm
NO> 6. swarm-jdk-2.1.140.spec
MAYBE> 7.swarm-static-2.1.140.20020514-1.i386.rpm
Thanks.

you need hdf5 and swarm itself.
THe packages for jikes, tcl/tk, glibc, emacs, blt, from the RH7.3
distribution are fine. Comments in the FAQ are targeted to specific
editions of Swarm. The FAQ won't have details for these 2.2x releases
until the release is finalized.
Kaffe was a Java package from another company, but RH has deprecated it.
Blackdown Java is a volunteer project that Sun took over about a year
ago, so I switched to the Sun version because it seemed fine and more
accessible. With more docs, too. But I think the Blackdown would work.
