i changed the debconf frontend while processing hooks, so that the
sun-java* packages can be installed there (i'll switch it later to a
some parameter so that it can be automatized).

so, with live-package SVN, you can do it much simpler:

  * specify all packages except sun-java* within LIVE_PACKAGES or pass
    it with --packages to make-live.

  * pass --hook apt-get install sun-java5-jdk

i rebuild the image with todays etch and did it like i described above.
with that procedure, i wasn't able to reproduce the issue you brought up.

i'm unsure if it is related to the new sun-java5 packages which entered
testing recently, however, please retry it and tell me if you are still
having the same problem.
