Stefan: I think you've nailed it. I just checked my sources.list and I'm
missing hardy-updates in universe. I've never manually removed this as
far as I remember. Could it be that the upgrade process doesn't set up
sources.list correctly?
The worrying thing is, if I fire up Synaptic and look at
This bug definitely isn't invalid, although it's also not an openjdk-6
bug. Reopening so that someone more knowledgeable can direct it to the
right place (upgrades? synaptic?).

Gerv,
Let's keep this bug invalid and file a new bug for synaptic. I am sure
if I assign this one to synaptic people are going to get confused.

For others with the same problem, I found out what the problem was, at
least in my case.
I had the very same issue as reported here for a good while, an obsolete
tzdata-java was dependent on tzdata=2008b-1ubuntu1, preventing
installation of both openjdk-6 and an up to date tzdata. Apparently the
closing as invalid. it's a mirror problem. there is no = dependency in
openjdk-6-jre-headless. both tzdata and tzdata-java are built from the
same source and available in the archive at the same time.

How could the problem be with the mirror?
As far as I understand it, this is what happens:
- Someone has a fully-updated Ubuntu but no Java installed
- This means they have tzdata-2008g (I think it's g)
- They try and install Java using apt-get
- openjdk-jre-6-headless has an = dependency on
Gerv,
I think it will be helpful if you actually try changing mirror and then
report back. Just because different people are reporting the problem
does not mean it is not a mirror problem. None of the users who have
reported the issue have mentioned what mirror they are using.

I'm using gb.archive.ubuntu.com, not some unofficial mirror - it really
should be working.
Evidence that it's not a mirror problem: the following directories are
(as far as I can see) identical between gb.archive and us.archive:

Gerv,
You have to edit mirrors in file /etc/apt/sources.list. Use command
'gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'.
1. Try removing gb. from the mirror name. So you will be using main mirror.
2. Also make sure you have entries for hardy-updates, and hardy-security
uncommented i.e. not starting with

I removed gb., did apt-get update, and then apt-get upgrade. It still
told me tzdata has been kept back.
So I ran a
This keeps periodically re-breaking itself when one updates the system.
To fix it this time I had to do:
sudo apt-get uninstall tz-data
sudo apt-get install tzdata=2008b-1ubuntu1
sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre-headless

Oops, I read Gerv's comment wrong. But I still would like to know if the
problem is with mirror or not.

Gerv,
I am not able to understand why a dependency of the form '=' would cause
problem when uninstalling the package.
Also have you verified the archive mirror is updated. The
us.archive.ubuntu.com one is known to be broken from time to time.

It's a problem with the packages which make up Hardy, which is the

please make sure that the same versions of tzdata and tzdata-java are
installed. if your mirror is out of date, maybe use another archive
mirror temporarily?
