Package: java

Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I was trying to install the Java runtime environment, so I ran
"apt-get install java", which seems like a sensible course of
action.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I, uhh... ran "apt-get install java"
* What was the outcome of this action?
I got an error message saying that the package doesn't exist.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected that some sensible default version of the JRE would be
installed. You know, like you get with default-jre, only without
having to experience annoyance, or interact with the internet.

Closing as won't fix. These are trademarked names, and should not be
used. We probably could use openjdk-jre, but what's the point here?
