Yes in fact it is - see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=338569 as suggested by Ruben.

I did it another way. I uninstalled ibm java
apt-get remove ibm-j2re1.5 java-package
apt-get install java-package
downloaded java-package.patch (see bug 338569)
cd /usr/share
patch -p0 <java-package.patch
cd /home/bla/ibmjava (where ibm tgz file is downloaded)
(as user)
fakeroot make-jpkg ibm-java2-jre-50-linux-ppc.tgz
(as root)
dpkg -i ibm-j2re1.5_1.5.0_powerpc.deb
put path to Java in Konqueror (/usr/bin/java)
logout, login
and JavaJVM works fine!!

Strange but it doesn't work for me. JVM in Mozilla and Firefox is still broken. Any ideas??
How to check which plugins are installed in Mozilla/Firefox??
BTW: why j2sdk1.5-ibm ?? I have /usr/lib/j2re1.5-ibm/jre/bin/libjavaplugin_oji.so. Is it the same plugin??

Best regadrs,
