There is one for java-1.7.0-openjdk and one for java-1.8.o-oepnjdk for
both CentOS-6 and CentOS-7 .. as both are being maintained.  You may or
may not have both installed.

For CentOS-5, there is no java-1.8.0-openjdk, only 1.7.0 .. so for
CentOS-5, there is only one update.

Expect updates for java-1.6.0-openjdk soonish .. Oracle no longer
supports that version directly, so Red Hat will have to backport updates
that are required to that version.  There will be updates for centOS-5,
6, and 7 for java-1.6.0

So, there are 3 versions of 'java openjdk' 1.6.0, 1.7.0, and 1.8.0 in
CentOS-6 and 7 .. and only 1.6.0 and 1.7.0 in CentOS-5.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
