I need Java also for RHEL 4. One of your last changes concerning the path 
to mkfontdir did break the compatibility for RHEL 4.

To keep it simple I've set a symlink

$ ll /usr/bin/mkfontdir
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 22  4. Feb 08:20 /usr/bin/mkfontdir -> 
../X11R6/bin/mkfontdir

and then installed with rpm -U --nodeps because xorg-x11-font-utils-7.1-2 
provides mkfontdir on RHEL 5 but not on 4. In fact no package provides it 
on RHEL 4.

I hate installing with --nodeps but for me it was the most simple solution 
and it works.
