This is really an easter egg, folks:

You are right, I did not see bug #203636. And no, there now no reasons
to use java7 instead of openjdk6 as openjdk6 also works on amd64.
However, restricted-extras 12 referred to sun-java6-jre which did not
work in Firefox on amd64. I was unaware of openjdk6, as I have to
confess :-(

However, ubuntu-restricted-extras 14 now fetches icedtea-gcjwebplugin,
which in turn gets the openjdk-6-* stuff you mentioned.

This makes Java working on amd64 on Hardy beta. I just tested it here:

The folks here in the forums will be happy to hear this.... So pls
apologize the confusion I created but in the end, the result is good.

Thank you very much! This bug report can be closed as ubuntu-restricted-
extras solves the problem.
