You don't have to remove the GNU Java, just install Sun Java
somewhere and make sure that all the executables from Sun JDK are in
the path. I usually do it with the "alternatives" command. E.g.
(assuming Sun JDK is installed under /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/):
alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/
bin/java 1
alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/
bin/javac 1
alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10/bin/
jar 1
alternatives --install /opt/java java-home /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.5.0_10 1
Haven't used Core 7 yet, but I assume the configuration steps above
should work as well.
