LumpyCustard , how did you install sun-java5-plugin ?

In Bug 288642 I thought that I had tried sun-java5-plugin with
sudo apt-get remove sun-java6-plugin
and
sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin

However it still ran the java6-plugin. (I have realized now)
Even with :
sudo apt-get remove sun-java6-plugin
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin

The links refers to sun-java6-plugin - and I get no (working) java.
(Maybe it should be reported as a separate bug)

Beside I think the priority of this should be set to high.
(When a lot of Java applets (e.g. Internet banking) does not work - I would consider the problem to be big)
