You probably don't need it. If you do want to use the java docs they're readily available online. Or essentially the same information is available in the openjdk6 docs package. And it doesn't have any installation hassles. -james. -- Java Docs Package Won't Install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/85969 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.

This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the JDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the archives: jdk-6-doc.zip jdk-6-doc-ja.zip (choose the non-update version if this is the first installation). Please visit http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/ now and download. The file should be owned by root.root and be copied to /tmp. [Press RETURN to try again, 'no' + RETURN to abort] We should probably use wget or something to grab these files and save users the hassle.
