each update of java leaves files under /usr/lib/jvm/ it looks like some files are installed in /usr/lib/jvm/java-*/jre/lib/[ext,security] which are unknown to rpm, so they were not removed on uninstall/update.
Just FYI, you'll need to report this to RedHat's bugzilla if you actually want it to be fixed. We don't maintain any downstream changes beyond what is necessary.
@David: I quite don't understand your answer. As "user" of mageia, I'm supposed to report bugs upstream "redhat" because we just import packages?! The responsibility should be at the maintainer. I thought we do more, than just importing packages... I thought fixing and reporting patches upstream is what we do too.
I've found the problem - and it is a change by mageia! the files not removed are defined as config files and are binary which is total nonsense: config(noreplace) %{_jvmdir}/%{jredir -- %{?1}}/lib/security/policy/unlimited/US_export_policy.jar %config(noreplace) %{_jvmdir}/%{jredir -- %{?1}}/lib/security/policy/unlimited/local_policy.jar %config(noreplace) %{_jvmdir}/%{jredir -- %{?1}}/lib/security/policy/limited/US_export_policy.jar %config(noreplace) %{_jvmdir}/%{jredir -- %{?1}}/lib/security/policy/limited/local_policy.jar
