I noticed today when updating my Fedora-19/KDE laptop:
------------------------
  Cleanup    : 1:java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.25-2.3.10.10.fc19.i686                                                                                 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.25-2.3.10.10.fc19.i386/jre/bin/java 
has not been configured as an alternative for java
------------------------
and a few other comments along the same lines.

In spite of this warning I see that
/usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java
-> /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.25-2.3.12.3.fc19.i386/jre/bin/java 

So what exactly does the comment/warning mean?
And what should one do about it?
