I cant' reproduce that bug:
$ dpkg -l | grep openjdk
ii openjdk-7-jre:amd64 7u75-2.5.4-2
amd64 OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT
ii openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 7u75-2.5.4-2
amd64 OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT (headless)
$ dpkg -l | grep icedtea-netx
ii icedtea-netx:amd64 1.5-2
amd64 NetX - implementation of the Java Network Launching Protocol (JNLP)
ii icedtea-netx-common 1.5-2
all NetX - implementation of the Java Network Launching Protocol (JNLP)
$ LANG=C sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
There are 2 choices for the alternative javaws (providing /usr/bin/javaws).
Selection Path Priority
Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/javaws 1071
auto mode
1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/javaws 1061
manual mode
2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/javaws 1071
manual mode
Looking at icedtea-netx's postinst script it seems the alternatives are
configured only if an alternative for openjdk 6 isn't previously set:
...
basedir=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64
...
base7dir=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64
...
case "$1" in
configure)
...
if [ -n "$multiarch" ] && [ -n "$2" ]; then
for i in $tools; do
if [ -z "$(update-alternatives --list $i 2>/dev/null | grep
^$basedir/)" ]; then
update_alternatives=y
break
fi
done
fi
...
Sounds like un old upgrade path bug.
I suppose youl'll be able to workaround this by removing then
re-installing icedtea-netx.
