yum pulls by default a version of Java which crashes ZGRViewer.
Make sure it pulls the right one.
Check also if Oracle Java binary can be freely redistributed with ParTools.
ZGRViewer apparently works with Oracle Java and OpenJDK.
Currently it crashes with GCJ.
ParTools RPM should require either:
** 'xml-commons-apis' for Oracle Java;
** 'jre-openjdk' for OpenJDK.
Check for version >= 1.6 won't hurt, either.
Then, the post-install scripts should check that alternatives select the right Java VM.
ZGRViewer launch script should recheck at every run. Add dependency on zenity to notify the errors.
Better always require OpenJDK regardless of Oracle Java.
Also, check that OpenJDK is what we get from alternatives. :-)
