OK, evidently I've got an old java since all I have in /usr/lib is
jdk1.1.
My apt/sources line is:
deb ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/debian
testing non-free
When I try to install j2sdk1.3 I get:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
j2sdk1.3: Depends: j2re1.3 (= 1.3.1.02b-2) but it is not going to be installed
When I try to install j2re1.3 I get:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
j2re1.3: Depends: j2se-common (> 1) but it is not installable
since:
E: Package j2se-common has no installation candidate
What do I do now?
