Karel Vervaeke commented on WHIRR-454:
--------------------------------------

Small update on this bit of news: 
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/01/canonical-reverse-java-uninstall-decision/
>From the article:
Sun JDK packages will be removed from the Ubuntu partner archive on February 
16th 2012 [...] Ubuntu users who don’t rely on the official package are being 
urged to swap over to alternatives, such as the Oracle-endorsed OpenJDK.

For now, I'll see if it works with the openjdk-6-jdk package and report how 
that goes.
                
> Change install_java implementation (sun-java-6 will be removed from Ubuntu 
> partner repositories)
