It's the ghost of RMS trying to get you to only accept GPL-
licensed s/w...

If you are using apt-get, it is a "more/less" of the license. Hit the
"space bar" a few times and then "q". Then you can answer the question.
And it proceeds.

One thing, before you install Java JRE1.4 you might need to make a
symbolic link in:

/usr/lib/

ln -s mozilla mozilla-cvs

And that should allow it to install.

Also I have a "compiled with gcc3.2" deb source so it Works with Mozilla
1.4 in Sid:

deb http://jopa.studentenweb.org/debian ./

Hope that helps!

Blackdown Java Install Issue

2003-07-25 Thread Ed Lawson


Just went to install the 1.4 Java debs from Blackdown for my unstable box.  When doing 
so I get a message requiring that I accpt the Sun license, but there seems to be no 
way to do this and certainly cannot click on any options as sugested.  This hangs the 
install.  

Anyone else encountered this problem?  Solutions?

TIA

Ed Lawson
