Package: java-package
Version: 0.42
Followup-For: Bug #504778
I created the same patch as Pawel, and it worked also for etch (oldstable). I installed the lenny version of
java-package manually. The ubuntu patch is more complete, so it might be worth including that one.
Some things are a bit different from the other sun-java versions: The package installs into
/usr/lib/, not as the official packages into /usr/lib/jvm/, but that is not really a problem.
update-alternatives --config java
1 /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
3 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
4 /usr/lib/j2sdk1.6-sun/bin/java
update-java-alternatives -l # does not recognize the new java version
java-1.5.0-sun 53 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun
java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
not all alternatives are there, as far as I can see from update-java-alternatives -l -v. There are quite a lot of
binaries, I mark the missing alternatives in update-alternatives with a * :
ControlPanel
java
java_vm *
javaws
jcontrol
keytool
pack200
policytool
rmid
rmiregistry
unpack200

firefox-javaplugin.so
iceape-javaplugin.so *
iceweasel-javaplugin.so
mozilla-javaplugin.so
midbrowser-javaplugin.so *
xulrunner-javaplugin.so *
Ok, so far my observations.
Thanks for your efforts,
Martin
