What seems to happen is that update-alternatives correctly sets java6 as the default, however the symlink of /usr/bin/java is linked to /etc/alternatives/java which is only handled by update-java-alternatives not the usual update-alternatives.
Is there anyway to make that a bit less confusing or has update-java- alternatives always been the proper way to handle the symlinks for java in /etc/alternatives? -- [feisty] update-alternatives doesn't notice java6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
