This is plaguing us since years (resulting in user reports on a daily =
basis), and I often thought it could be fixed on the server side. I did =
that now; all files containing install-wJRE are now delivered in place =
of files that lack the wJRE part in their name, provided the wJRE file =
exists while the non-wJRE file doesn't. Fixed this way, it works both =
with mirrors and the server, and avoids changes in the tree.

-f $src ] || echo "RewriteRule ^.*$src files/$dst [R,L]"; done =
