[Geoff Brown]

Reposted from Stefan (as an example):

'---code start (watch for line wraps)

<package id="Java" name="Java" revision="2011.10.22" reboot="false" priority="10" execute="once">
   <include package-id="JRE6" os="5\.0\.\d{4}"/>
   <include package-id="JRE7">
       <condition>
           <check type="logical" condition="not">
               <check type="host" condition="os" value="5\.0\.\d{4}"/>
           </check>
       </condition>
   </include>
</package>

'---code end
