I can't even get it to install cleanly:

Preconfiguring packages ...
Selecting previously deselected package ia32-sun-java6-bin.
(Reading database ... 114431 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking ia32-sun-java6-bin (from .../ia32-sun-java6-bin_6.22-1_amd64.deb)

Press return to continue.
