Bug Description
Binary package hint: sun-java5-jre
Currently the sun-java5-jre package lacks info in the Provides field:
# Ubuntu Gutsy, i386
$ apt-cache show sun-java5-jre | grep Provides
Provides: java-virtual-
Compare with the IcedTea package:
$ apt-cache show icedtea-java7-jre | grep Provides
Provides: java-runtime, java2-runtime, java5-runtime, java6-runtime, java7-runtime
In the same fashion
$ apt-cache show sun-java6-jre | grep Provides
Provides: java-virtual-
Solution:
Modify the sun-java5-jre package, add java5-runtime as provided by the package.
Modify the sun-java6-jre package, add java5-runtime and java6-runtime as provided by the package.
Currently, only icedtea-java7-jre provides java5-runtime and java6-runtime, see the URL below:
