Package: default-jdk
Version: 1.5-30
Severity: important

This package's name sounds as if it would provide the default Debian Java development kit,
but that's exactly what the package doesn't do. In fact, I find it difficult to use
"aptitude search java" or anything similar to find out which package to install to be able
to do

java <class>

I have been using Debian as a programmer for many years but Java seems to be hidden
somewhere.

-- System Information:
Debian Release: 5.0
  APT prefers stable
  APT policy: (500, 'stable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)

Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.4 (SMP w/1 CPU core; PREEMPT)
Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash

Versions of packages default-jdk depends on:
ii  default-jre                   1.5-30     Standard Java or Java compatible R
ii  java-gcj-compat-dev           1.0.78-2   Java runtime environment with GCJ

default-jdk recommends no packages.

Excellent, I'm therefore closing this bug.

I'm afraid I'd need much more information to be able to comment on that.
It should also be taken somewhere other than this bug report if you want
more help.
