You may want to verify what version your link came from. May I suggest you purge your package, delete the link (since not being known in the package's alternatives, it will mean the link will not be removed -- how it got there in the first place for you and didn't subsequently get removed on an upgrade, I don't know), and reinstall Version: 6-05-1 from sid? > ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun ls: cannot access /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun: No such file or directory I don't fully understand how alternatives work (in where the metainformation etc comes from), but I don't see any /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/*sun* Maybe you have a package that I don't which indicates there is a dependency problem, as well as a general screwup in that I'm sure one package shouldn't be owning another package's alternatives. > closing again.
