Also, you're going to have to remove the license folder manually before having it replaced with the symlink:
# rm -r /usr/share/licenses/jre/

@BunBum, the syntax is '-version':
└┌(%:~/Desktop)┌- java -version
java version "1.8.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_20-b26)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.20-b23, mixed mode)
@frederik, I just told you, if you would have scrolled just a couple of comments down: to allow parallel installations, which I was asked to support now that Guillaume implemented that possibility through 'java-common' (OpenJDK, JRE7, etc.).
@madmack, apparently you're going to have to first remove that folder manually, as Pacman refuses to (even with --force) to replace a directory with a file (symlink).

and if I exclude java-common I get this one:
jdk: /usr/share/licenses/jdk exists in filesystem
freswa commented on 2014-09-03 10:16 (UTC)
Why does this depends on java-common?
I'm getting errors when installing java-common
The links "/usr/lib/jvm/java-default-runtime“ and „/usr/lib/jvm/default-runtime“ can not be created.

getting this error when trying to update today:
jdk: /usr/share/licenses/jdk exists in filesystem

@sl1pkn07, fixed that as well.
E: Also, you could probably have a bit more careful look on things before adding a new comment. Thanks.

As was made with the java packages in the official repositories, jdk now provides the jre alongside it, and both packages conflict with each other. During the package upgrade to version 22, act accordingly to your needs. For example, if you have both jdk and jre installed, only jdk will be sufficient, as it now also contains the runtime environment, and jre can be uninstalled. If you have only jre installed, no action is required.
