Getting Java 1.6.0_03 to work

["David Schulberg" <davids@evertech.com.au>]

Hi,

Wishing to install latest version of JRE.

After much sweat I created Debian package based on Java 1.6.0_03.
Had to modify the contents of java-package by copying sun-j2re1.5 to
sun-j2re1.6 and editing the sun-j2re.sh script to include the following in
the first section:

	"jre-6u3-linux-i586.bin")
	   j2se version=1.6
	   j2se_expected_min_size=16 # 16542512 bytes
	   found=true
	   ;;

Ran dpkg command and it seemed to work BUT still I seem to only have
original GNU Java version 1.4.2 on my machine. When I run
'update-alternatives --config java' it says I only have one program that
provides java. 

Desperate to get latest version of Java installed!

Regards,
David
