To install the Java from Sun, I was following the steps given here:
http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/debianjava.htm
When I do the fakeroot command to make the deb package out of the java
bin file I had previously downloaded, I get this kind of output:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$> fakeroot make-jpkg jdk-1_5_0_08-linux-i586.bin

dpkg-deb: building package `sun-j2sdk1.5' in
`/tmp/make-jpkg.fNnbm12210/sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0+update08_i386.deb'.
tar: -: file name read contains nul character
copy sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0+update08_i386.deb into directory
/home/red/tmp/dat/
The Debian package has been created in the current directory. You can
install the package as root (e.g. dpkg -i
sun-j2sdk1.5_1.5.0+update08_i386.deb).
Removing temporary directory: done
------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, after the last step, if my deb finally okay? Should I be worrying
about the "format of 'NEEDED ....so' not recognized" warnings?
Another webpage (Ubuntu groups) mentions that the warnings about
permissions denined while creating system directories can be ignored.
Can somebody who has done this sucessfully explain if I am doing this right?
Thanks,
->HS
