I disagree with this fix for amd64 - there is no sun-java6-plugin in repositories for this architecture. Now those who run amd64 and upgrade ubuntu-restricted-extras have 2 JVMs installed as this package depends on both icedtea-gcjwebplugin (which depends on openjdk-6-jre) AND sun-java6-jre, at mininum a waste of space.. I solved this problem by forcing and locking the old version of ubuntu-restricted-extras.
With Ubuntu 8.04 OpenJDK always ran smoothly for me. I know it lacks some bits in media related APIs, the only Java application I run that require such things is FrostWire, and it works fine! Are there other mainstream Java apps that fail with OpenJDK? -- Please add sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin to *ubuntu-restricted-extras https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231098 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
