MacosX Java Update to 6 (JDK 6)

Recently, I had a problem with the version of JDK on my system. The MacosX (Leopard) has the 1.5 as the default install. It actually download the update but does not activate it. Anyway, from Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences, you can organize the order of the Java installations however this would not unless the you break the links :
sudo rm System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK
sudo ln -s 1.6 System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK

Stay tuned.
