This bug has come back in sun-java6-bin 6-06-0ubuntu1! According to the changelog:
* javaws.desktop: Add `%u' to the Exec key, remove -viewer option. Closes: #436645. It looks though like the -viewer argument has been removed from the wrong file: it was removed from the desktop shortcut (/usr/share/applications/sun-java6-javaws.desktop), while it should have been removed from the file association (/usr/share/application-registry /sun-java6-web-start.applications). Now when you start webstart from Applications->Internet->Sun Java 6 Webstart nothing happens and in the .xsession-errors file you see the usage of javaws. -- Sun Java 6 Web Start Menu Entry missing "-viewer" command line argument https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78169 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
