[pca] Broken Java patches

[Martin Paul]

Hi,

In today's xref file, the Java 5.0 patches (11866[6789]) have been 
updated from revision 15 to 16, but downloading the patches with pca 
fails. Looking at the READMEs, they are mostly empty but have this notice:

***********************************************************
In order to provide the highest patch quality, this patch
will be available on or before March 7.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
***********************************************************

It seems as if the *-16 patches have been pulled back without actually 
correctly updating the xref file. When trying to download e.g. 118666-16 
with pca/wget, one gets:

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: 69,147,388 (66M) [application/download]

  0% [                                     ] 1,209         --.--K/s 


So sunsolve says the patch zip file is 66M, but only delivers a 1209 
bytes file. This is a zip file containing just the README file. wget of 
course believes that there are 66M still to come, and hangs forever.

Hopefully Sun will replace the *-16 patches with *-15 again in the next 
xref file. Otherwise, you'll have to use pca's "ignore" option to ignore 
those patches until they are released correctly.

Martin.
