Icedtea-web plugin is flavourless replacement for Java.

English Applications
#1

Java 1.6.0 browser plugin has been replaced by Icedtea plugin in the last
update. Unfortunately, Firefox now complains that java isn’t enabled
when, of course, it still is. The new plug-in is also listed in the FF
add-ons.

I assume this isn’t the intended effect of the update?

There’s a bug report on this:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=702825
It looks as if they want to get out a fix for this as soon as possible.

There’s also another thread on the issue:
java missing in SeaMonkey?

I’d read the original and not made the connection. Probably “misread”
would be more accurate. Sorry!

Thanks for the info.
