You seemed to be puzzled that java wasn't working.  I pointed to the
announcement that indicated the state of java.  If you only read the
latest announcement which indicated that it was a "very minor refresh"
then you wouldn't have seen the above message.  However, the "very minor
refresh" phrase could have also triggered a "Hmm.  I wonder what this is
a minor refresh of" type of inquiry.

I point these kind of things out so that, in the future, if you are
researching problems like this, you will know where to search.
