Hi ...
Yes, you could do it that way.
However, I think a better way, from both a system maintenance and SELinux point of view, would be to use the JPackage RPMs. You need to build these yourself due to the way Sun license Java, and this may appear at first to be a daunting prospect, but it's not difficult really. See: http://www.city-fan.org/tips/JpackageJava
Installing Java using the JPackage RPMs will get all of the SELinux contexts set correctly "out of the box" and the software will be managed by RPM, just like all the other software on the system. It really is the best way IMHO.

Paul, do you know of similar way to install adobe "pdf reader" plugin for firefox.
Try this: http://www.city-fan.org/tips/AdobeReaderOnFedora
Note to Dan: The RPMforge mozilla-acroread package hardlinks the plugin nppdf.so into three different locations:
/usr/lib/acroread/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so /usr/lib/netscape/plugins/nppdf.so
Only one of these is caught by the current context types, so it will end up labelled lib_t. I suggest the following addition to policy:
/usr/lib/[^/]*/plugins/nppdf.so -- gen_context(system_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t,s0)
Paul.
thanks Paul
