Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. Unfortunately a paper cut should be a small usability issue that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. I'm afraid this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.
OpenJDK is not part of the default install, And also, an average user tends to use Sun-Java rather than OpenJdK. Hence not a papercut. A paper cut is a minor usability annoyance that an average user would encounter on his/her first day of using a new installation of Ubuntu 9.10. For further info about papercuts criteria , pls read > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut Don't worry though, This bug has been marked as "invalid" ONLY in the papercuts project. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New => Invalid -- Rather useless Java menu entries https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222180 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in ubuntu. Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Invalid Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When you install openjdk-6-jre, you get two menu entries: one in System->Preferences called "OpenJDK Java Policy Tool", and one in Applications->Internet called "OpenJDK Java Web Start". Java is a very common need, and thus I don't think they're really needed by default: these configuration options are really obscure and we already have hidden simpler tools from GNOME. At least, the one in Applications should be (re)moved because it is in no way an application, but merely a limited control panel. The implied files are: /usr/share/applications/openjdk-6-java.desktop /usr/share/applications/openjdk-6-policytool.desktop And would only need a one-line modification. This would help cleaning the menus, and System->Preferences really doesn't need more bloating. ;-) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openjdk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openjdk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
