Here's the change for oneiric for java-access-bridge. With this change,
installing openjdk-{jdk,jre} no longer pulls in any openjdk-6 components
by default. I have not tried this change for precise, but my gut feeling
is that it will probably Just Work.For those who cannot wait for this change in oneiric, I've built it in the PPA https://launchpad.net/~duh/+archive/duh (ppa:duh/duh). ** Patch added: "Change dependency from openjdk-6-jre to java6-runtime (fixes LP: #881218)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ca-certificates-java/+bug/881218/+attachment/2668653/+files/java-access-bridge_1.26.2-6_1.26.2-6%2Bduh1.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to java-access-bridge in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881218 Title: openjdk-7-jre depends on openjdk-6-jre Status in “ca-certificates-java” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “java-access-bridge” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: There is a circular dependency between openjdk-7-jre and openjdk-6-jre.
