There are around popular proprietary software packages which ship a
private version of the sun jre.
They are doing so you can untar & run easily. Why I do not like them,
there is relevant part of users (including me) who need to deal with
them.
Right know having them run on Debian is tricky: you first need to
realize that they are shipping a custom jre, second you need to be
aware of this "issue" with ipv6 sockets in Debian.
One example is vmware server.
