openjdk-6-javaws.desktop should point to javaws in /etc/alternatives

[Nicolás Lichtmaier]

The package install javaws as an alternative, yet in the desktop file the non-alternative version is used.

Exec=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/javaws %u

should be changed to either...

Exec=/usr/bin/javaws %u

or

Exec=/etc/alternatives/javaws %u

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

I don't think so. the desktop file is called openjdk-6-javaws, and shouldn't use anything which is provided by another package.

[Nicolás Lichtmaier (niqueco)]

So you are breaking the alternatives system. What's the point in calling a binary the user has expressed explicitly he don't want?

In any case, provide a javaws.desktop in common package (¿java-common?) which does this, at least.
