Synopsis 6u10 installer needs to save information so 6u11 can tell if it can patch-in-place that build
Category java:install
Reported Against
Release Fixed 6u10(b27)
State 11-Closed, Verified, bug
Priority: 2-High

Description
See CR 6709081: 6u11 installer should not patch 6u10-beta releases

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install 6u10-beta
2. Install 6u11-fcs
3. It will try and patch the 6u10-beta jre image, but it will get a patcher error (because it's expecting 6u10-fcs)

We'll need some way of detecting if an installed release is non-fcs, and tell the user to uninstall it before upgrading.
