Re: [Trisquel-users] Any way to replace Java?

[onpon4]

It sounds like you're a few years behind the times... OpenJDK isn't even some  
unofficial reverse-engineered thing. It's official, hosted on Oracle's  
servers, and as of Java 7 it's the reference implementation. You don't even  
get the proprietary Java runtime environment on most GNU/Linux systems unless  
you specifically go hunting for it.

In Debian-based systems, and this includes Trisquel, just install the  
"default-jre" package for the runtime environment, and the "default-jdk"  
package for the development kit. If you want the Java plugin, install the  
"icedtea-plugin" package.
