I won't add a 64bit package; the packaging changes are extensive.

There is no ubuntu package for a 64-bit JVM on the 32-bit linux system

I've got the scoop here from the man who makes the upstream package on
debian for gdb64.
There is a valid config consisting of a 64-bit kernel and a 32-bit user
space. In such an environment, the default is 32-bit executables, but 64-bit
ones also work.
Thus, a 64-bit Java would go nicely with a
OK, I see what you're getting at. One immediate problem is that I don't
think the closed source Java is available in 64 bit anyway, only the
open source version(s),
AFAIK, the way the package managers work is that they detect what
environment you are running in and download the appropriate 32 or

The sun 64-bit JVM seems available for 1.5.

I didn't check 1.6.
Here's the situation as I see it. In general, the ubuntu (or generic debian)
package system only offers you packages with binaries for your current
environment.
It seems like there isn't specific support for Debian systems from that
page. If you look here, you can get a .bin installer for Java 6 -

Assuming what you're saying is true, then your request seems valid. I

You could make contact with the Debian person I quoted in my previous email
if you need the howto. I agree that Sun is not big on .deb packages. You'd
need to concoct one if you decided to proceed.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to report this. But why would you want a
64-bit app available for a 32-bit system. A 32-bit system cannot run 64-bit
applications.
I will close this bug, but if I have misunderstood your request, please change
the status back to New and provide more detail.
I thought I knew what was going in here, but now I confess I'm not so
sure.
Consider the package 'gdb64.' I'm asking for the same treatment for
java.
However, I now discover that I can't figure out how to use it. So I guess I
can't complain too loudly if you toss me back out on my ear on this
Typically when you download programs from the repositories, it
automatically detects your architecture so you don't have to fiddle
around with it. In most packages, there is no difference in package
name anyway. If you want the GNU Debugger for your i386 system, simply
download the package gdb.
I am using the cross-compiler environment, which is all those '64' packages
that turn on gcc -m64 and all that. When I saw gdb64 I thought I'd hit a
jackpot.

GDB is a debugger, so if your linux install is i386, you don't want the
64 bit package. Does that mean you are compiling for 64 bit on your 32
bit machine? I've never done/tried this, but if you are, as long as you
have the code libraries you shouldn't need anything for GDB in 64 bit
since you
The mystery is why there is a 64-bit gdb in the 32-bit repo.
Go ahead and close the bug report.
