Regardless of the existence of java5 in Debian, I can agree that having jruby work directly with a java5 JRE (installed from unofficial sources) is a good thing, so I'll incorporate your patch soon. > I believe this bug should be reported upstream.

If you could report it upstream, that'd be great. You can link to http://bugs.debian.org/563028 in your bug report. Cheers, --Seb
