sun-java6-jre depends on sun-java6-bin (= 6-15-1) but 6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04 is current

[thearthur]

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

...

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  sun-java6-jdk: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-15-1) but 6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

Ubuntu 9.10
installing sun-java6-jdk 6-15-1
sun-java6-bin 6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04 is installed

should the sun-java6-jdk package be updated to work with the current sun-java6-bin package?

as a workaround you can run

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre=6-15-1 to downgrade the jre then
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk=6-15-1 to install the jdk
