Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-restricted-extras

Package: ubuntu-restricted-extras
Version: 23
Recommends: …, icedtea-gcjwebplugin, …

Package: icedtea-gcjwebplugin
Version: 1.0-1ubuntu4
Depends: icedtea6-plugin

Package: icedtea6-plugin
Version: 6b12-0ubuntu6
Conflicts: icedtea-gcjwebplugin (< 6b12)

ubuntu-restricted-extras should recommend icedtea6-plugin instead of
icedtea-gcjwebplugin.  Also, icedtea-gcjwebplugin should probably be
given a higher version so it isn’t conflicted by the package it’s trying
to transition to (or is this supposed to work anyway?).
