+</I>
+Well, my point is that it should added to this script, rather
+that being done manually by policy.
+
+So yes, while there is nothing, we keep it, but it should be trivial
+to add and then adapt the policy.
+
+&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; I am not sure for the requires on jpackages-utils, could we explain what
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt; it bring ?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I'll dig on that during my launch break
+</I>&gt;<i> AFAIU jpackes-utils brings a directory structures and tools to manage JREs. It is required by packaged applications that, at least run on top of JRE (openjdk and sun-java)
+</I>&gt;<i> but as it is also a dependency of, at least, openjdk rpm (didn't check for sun-java nor gcj) it may be removed for java application policy. Can someone confirm this ?
+</I>
+Well, as I am advocating to have 1 and only 1 supported jvm to start ( because having more
+just add complexity and insanity, and there is already enough work to do ), maybe the directory
+structure should be pushed into the jvm.
+( now, i guess that the move to have 1 single jvm will be seen as extremely controversial , I know ).
