The current jdk deb is 1.1.5v5-1. As another poster said, it
sounds like you are running the libc5 Debian distribution.
You'll have lotsa problems trying to get current software to run
with it. The current distribution is libc6 (hamm) and can be
found at ftp://ftp.debian.org/pub/debian/dists/frozen.
If you move to hamm, you'll find that most of your questions
answer themselves.
Best regards.
