    Thanks to all who responded:

    Danielle Georgette.
    Dr. Thomas P. Blinn.
    John Lanier.

    The problem is solved. Dr.Blinn suggested I delete the directory tree
    /usr/opt/java131. I vrestored back to the original operating system
    ( V5.1 ), did a rm -r /usr/opt/java131 and then the installupdate
    went through without error.

    Thanks again and have a nice morning, afternoon or night
    depending on where you are.
