Comment 16 for bug 231098

@vinipl87: Sun released a version of Java 6 in Jan or Feb 2009 which includes a 64-bit browser plug-in. The version of Sun Java 6 included with Jaunty (Sun Java 6 update 13) includes this 64-bit plug-in.

I agree with your observation that ubuntu-restricted-extras should not depend on OpenJDK Java as well as Sun Java; it is totally unnecessary to install two versions of Java.

ubuntu-restricted-extras for Jaunty should only depend on sun-java6-plugin (and sun-java6-jre) and not on icedtea6-plugin or anything else that pulls in OpenJDK Java.
