From the attached log file:

Setting up sun-java6-doc (6-10-0ubuntu2) ...
This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
JDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the
archives:

    jdk-6-doc.zip jdk-6-doc-ja.zip

(choose the non-update version if this is the first installation).
Please visit

    http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/

now and download. The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
to /tmp.

[Press RETURN to try again, 'no' + RETURN to abort] no
Abort installation of JDK documentation

I manually downloaded the docs into the same folder that I was installing the software from. The link I found was http://www.filewatcher.com/m/jdk-6-doc.zip.54898268.0.0.html.
