Bug#650928: java-common: A very recent (Dec 2011) change somewhere in java hosed various aspects of java



Thanks for this very prompt answer.

Okay, there seems to be an issue on the origin of this problem...

I can confirm that this is a *very* recent issue (another machine, which
had had an update about 2-3 days ago, does not exhibit this problem ; on
my problematic machines, the problem did not appear on Friday Dec 2(last
time I remember having used Zotero on at least one of these machines).
Would a list of the current possible updates to this machine help you
find the problem ? I tried that (at-get dist-upgrade -u -f -s | less),
but found nothing obvious to my eyes...

I can also confirm that the problem might be peculiar to the particular
"Zotero OpenOffice integration" plugin/tool : on at least one of my
problematic machines, Zotero Standalone is still able to receive
additions from Chrome...

Can either of you suggest a workaround or temporary fix ? I am not a
systems administrator, just a bloody dentist/biostatistician (yes...)
that *uses* a computer in his everyday problem solving and *writing*.
This latter is a very important part of his work...
