Removal of java-1.6.0-sun does not remove the 'alternatives' it provides
Issue
- On a typical installation of
java-1.6.0-sun, both thei586andx86_64versions are installed. However, if one of the two is removed, its alternatives are not removed. If that alternative is the default, it is then broken.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5
- java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0.26-1jpp.1.el5
