java-common no longer creates default-java symlink

[Wes Morgan]

On new installs of 12.04 with the latest packages as of Oct. 29, 2012, 22:50 UTC, the /usr/lib/jvm/default-java does not get created. After installing openjdk-6-jdk, my /usr/lib/jvm/ dir looks like this:

ls -la /usr/lib/jvm
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 29 22:12 .
drwxr-xr-x 53 root root 4096 Oct 29 22:12 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Oct 24 19:12 java-1.6.0-openjdk-i386 -> java-6-openjdk-i386
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2345 Oct 24 19:12 .java-1.6.0-openjdk-i386.jinfo
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 29 22:12 java-6-openjdk-common
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Oct 29 22:12 java-6-openjdk-i386
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 29 22:12 java-7-openjdk-i386

There should be a symlink named default-java pointing to java-6-openjdk-i386.
