Hello,
Ok, this has been fixed now, sun-java6 packages are installed from
local mirror on android-build, building capability is restored.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android-infrastructure/+bug/936990 is
opened to track switching to OpenJDK, awaiting Android team response to
that.
Also, it turned out that Ubuntu's sun-java6 repository is actually in
inconsistent state, reported as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+bug/937027
Thanks,
Paul
