R. A. Rivas Diaz: Your idea doesn't address the current need of applications to be particular about which JVMs they support for a default experience. Not all applications can point to a single system-wide default JVM.
Added to this, I suspect per-user configuration of which JVM is used would still be desired, up until the point where we have only one JVM. If that point is even attainable. -- update-java-alternatives does not change the JAVA_HOME https://launchpad.net/bugs/45348 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
