Jpackage on FC3

The Jpackage project has RPMs for lots of Free Java packages and also SRPMs that you can build against various non-Free packages like Java from Sun.

The intention with this page is to document installing the required depandances for MKSearch on Fedora Core 3.

Configuring Yum / Apt

The first thing to do is to either configure Yum (which comes with FC3) to get the Free Jpackage packages or configure Apt (which comes from other repos such as Freshrpms). The Jpackage site has Apt and Yum configuration instructions, or you can follow the short instructions that follow.
