Re: java 5 in squeeze



Hi,

instead of replacing squeeze by lenny,
you can add identical lines with lenny.

So you have both in sources.list.

At my work, some java programs required version 5 and other version 6.
As sun-java5 is no more on Squeeze, i added Lenny in sources.list and then, use :
apt-get install sun-java5-jre

As sun-java5-jre doesn't exist on Squeeze, there is no clue.
But if you want to install some package that have the same name on both distros, you can use option -t with apt-get.

If sun-java5 continues to be important, then why not have a port in squeeze too?
