I think Nicolas' option 2) is very reasonable.

The java compiler is not just necessary for JSP compilation but for a whole range of normal server side Java deployment scenarios which depend on ant and javac.

Is there any good temporary workaround? The best I could find was

sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends -d install openjdk-6-jdk
sudo dpkg -i --ignore-depends=openjdk-6-jre /var/cache/apt/archives/openjdk-6-jdk_6b14-1.4.1-0ubuntu7_i386.deb
