Title:
  IBM Java 6 install fails

Status in “ubuntu-docs” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Refer to: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java

  This documentation refers to ibm-java-ppc-jre-6.0-10.1 while IBM is
  offering  ibm-java-ppc64-jre-6.0-14.0

  The specific command line and error is:

  [16:05:40][james@g5-powermac:~/Downloads]$sudo ./ibm-java-jre-6.0-14.0-linux-ppc64.bin 
  Preparing to install...
  Extracting the JRE from the installer archive...
  Unpacking the JRE...
  Extracting the installation resources from the installer archive...
  Configuring the installer for this system's environment...

  Launching installer...

  ./ibm-java-jre-6.0-14.0-linux-ppc64.bin: 2506: exec: /tmp/install.dir.21644/Linux/resource/jre/bin/java: not found
  [16:05:59][james@g5-powermac:~/Downloads]$

  Curiously, /tmp/install.dir.21644/Linux/resource/jre/bin/java does
  exist. I am not certain, but from the looks of the IBM documentation
  there have been other changes to accommodate another distribution.
  Apparently a VM or java session is trying to initiate and the java
  installer applet is not finding its binary.
