Re: Java 6 Install problems

Hi

Whilst I can see that being unable to install sun-java6 from sid is 
annoying, you should be able to work around it easily enough.  

Depending on your exact requirements you could either install sun-java5 or 
install 6-00-2 from testing, or grab 6-04-2 from  
http://snapshot.debian.net/sun-java6.  

If you really need 6-05 you could build it yourself or try 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/sun-java6. (For most packages I wouldn't 
recommend installing Ubuntu versions on Debian, but you could probably get 
away with it for sun-java packages.

Cheers
Andrew
