   What you are seeing is the unfortunate byproduct of some dependencies   
   and as a result not running the latest jre 1.7.0 for your   
   distribution. Same thing is happening on 64 bit installs.   
      
   jre_1.6.0 -> /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64   
   jre_1.6.0_exports -> /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64   
   jre_1.7.0 -> /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64   
   jre_1.7.0_exports -> /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64   
   jre_exports -> /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64   
   jre_openjdk -> /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64   
   jre_openjdk_exports -> /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64
