package sun-java6-jre None [modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/sun-java6-jre.list] failed to install/upgrade: subprocess pre-installation script killed by signal (Interrupt)

[Francesco P.]

Simply, while executing in a terminal session, the sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras, there is no way to confirm the SUN agreement while installing Java: no mouse, no enter and the only action is to stop the process to avoid to stay in loop.

Intrepid 8.10 the version.

Thanks for your bug report!
Your read the license and what did you after that? Did you get asked if you accept or not? Did you type in "yes" and pressed enter?
Thanks.

Maybe I don't read with care, but the only at the end of the screen is a
'<OK>' characters button and nothing else. I try pressing Enter, but no
message to type Yes and confirm. I tried with a 'y' without success.

I installed from the Synaptic, a graphic window appear and the <OK>
button was manageable with the mouse, as usual.

Thanks for your answer and Happy New Year.

Okay, thanks. We let this bug open, because with apt-get there was no possibility to accept the license.
