Thank you for filing this bug.

Do you still get this error on Edgy final or on Feisty?

I have moved to Feisty Fawn (herd 5 at the moment), and I have no more this error message. The only "strange" message I see in adept details is this one at the beginning:
DESTROY created new reference to dead object ' Qt::VBoxLayout', <> line 15 during global destruction.

Using Feisty Beta this error message is still present without any change.
Quite annoying for installs that require some interactivity.

Yesterday I did not get the dialog, so I had to cancel installation of sun-java and finally did it via aptitude.
Today it seems to work fine, though ; the error message doesn't appear any longer...
