Have a look through the debian-java archives; unless I've read it wrong, it seems the blackdown java2 environment is about to hit incoming. And given that, it would seem better to sort all this out now than later. :) > BTW, WTF is with a java-runtime-environment-dummy package? That > abomination should be shot forthwith! I believe the point behind this is that people may have their own 3rd-party JVMs installed which aren't packaged for debian (such as the blackdown port as of up to now). JVMs are (alas) sufficiently individual and all of sufficiently different levels of sophistication and completeness that you can't really just say "go install one of the debian JVMs instead".
