hey all,
there may be a debain java list, but im no on it and this isnt
super important, so being that this query is related to ppc i will
put it here ;)
for various reasons i am enjoying tinkering with java on my
debianized ibook dual usb. obviously suns java isnt available
(which is fine, im not a hater) so i have been tinkering with
various alternatives.
i have the gjc going and i have been successful in using ibm's java
for powerpc (using java-package to keep it debian-centric)
firstly, is there a debian way of pointing the /usr/bin/java to the
jvm you plan to use? it points at /etc/alternatives/java, which
then points
to a binary. i have just relinked this, but am curious if there is
debian tool to manage
update-alternatives --config java
secondly, im curious if there is an iceweasel plugin that will run
applets using ibm's rather than the gnu java.
Take look in the Ubuntu Wiki - they have a description for that wich
also works on Debian. BTW, it also covers update-alternatives!
