severity 600664 serious tag -moreinfo it looks like you also need to have openjdk-6-jre installed to be ablo to reproduce this. otherwise, removal works fine.
note that in this situation, openjdk-6-jre is also unremovable. in fact it *installs* packages given a removal command: $ sudo apt-get purge openjdk-6-jre Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following extra packages will be installed: default-jre default-jre-headless The following NEW packages will be installed: default-jre default-jre-headless 0 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 319 not upgraded. Need to get 8,442B of archives. After this operation, 77.8kB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n Abort. so, ultimately once you have openjdk-6-jre and openjdk-6-jre-lib installed, there is no way to remove them. thanks for looking into this. mike _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openjdk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openjdk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
