Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
sun-java6-jre: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-01-1) but it is not going to be installed or ia32-sun-java6-bin (= 6-01-1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages


Thanks


I'm experiencing a similar problem, but I've already got the sun-java6-* packages installed and the new ones show up as upgrade candidates. I think that since jdk6 update 2 has been released, the debian sun-java6-* packages are being updated, but not all of them are available. I have the following installed:

[10:52][jose@sweety:~]$ dpkg -l sun-* | m
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name             Version        Description
+++-================-==============-=======================================================================
ii sun-java6-bin 6-00-2 Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture dependent files) ii sun-java6-demo 6-00-2 Sun Java(TM) Development Kit (JDK) 6 demos and examples ii sun-java6-doc 6-01-1 Sun JDK(TM) Documention -- integration installer
ii  sun-java6-fonts  6-00-2         Lucida TrueType fonts (from the Sun JRE)
ii  sun-java6-jdk    6-00-2         Sun Java(TM) Development Kit (JDK) 6
ii sun-java6-jre 6-00-2 Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture independent file ii sun-java6-source 6-00-2 Sun Java(TM) Development Kit (JDK) 6 source files

The ones that show up on my system as being "upgradable" (to version 6-01-1) are:

sun-java6-fonts
sun-java6-jre
sun-java6-source

But when I try to install any of them, apt-get needs to remove all my installed java packages (which I now I can't do because I need things like the jdk, etc).

I would suggest that you use snapshot.debian.net to install a version of the packages that you see above; this will give you a working java environment for the time being. I'm no expert, but this might be a temporary fix.
