Those are quite old java versions, aren't they? (1.3.1, current in 1.4.1).
On debian-java, someone posted a nice debian subdir to package the blackdown 
tarball release of a mor current version (1.4.1_01). I had to modify it a bit 
but if someone is interested, I can make it available for download.
