I grabbed a Debian Java FAQ from a link here recently and was trying to work through it this weekend. I stumbled, however when I was asked to apt-get install java2-common This package is not found anywhere I know to look. The next step in the faq requires using some *.control files that just don't exist, so I assume they're from this package (dummy-package?).
Can somone point me in the right direction here on how to get over this hump? Also, I've never added sources before, so if that is necessary, just a one-line example would be great. Thanx, msd
