I disagree with this fix for amd64 - there is no sun-java6-plugin in
repositories for this architecture.
Now those who run amd64 and upgrade ubuntu-restricted-extras have 2 JVMs
installed as this package depends on both icedtea-gcjwebplugin (which depends
on openjdk-6-jre) AND sun-java6-jre, at mininum a waste of space..
I solved this problem by forcing and locking the old version of
ubuntu-restricted-extras.
With Ubuntu 8.04 OpenJDK always ran smoothly for me. I know it lacks some bits
in media related APIs, the only Java application I run that require such things
is FrostWire, and it works fine!
Are there other mainstream Java apps that fail with OpenJDK?
