Binary package hint: update-manager
When update-manager upgrades some package (I think is it openjdk), my
existing /etc/alternatives javac setting gets replaced with the default.
This means suddenly my system is running java apps using openjdk instead
of sun's java. It should respect and preserve the alternatives setting,
or at the very minimum, should warn me that it is changing this
important setting. This has hit me several times over the last year or
two.
Apologies if this is not actually an update-manager problem. I reported
it here since this is the app that is running when the problem happens.
Running Ubuntu 9.04, update-manager 1:0.111.9
** Affects: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu)
