eclipse(feisty) can not find java-6

Bug Description

Binary package hint: eclipse

On startup, eclipse checks numerous possible locations for the JRE/JDK, but doesn't include /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun (at least the version in feisty)

Why (other than compatibility with other distros) does it even hard-code this list? In Ubuntu/Debian, it should be using the alternatives system to find the current VM.
