I can confirm this invalid dependency on Ubuntu Jaunty.

Note that there is also another alternative dependency that can't be
fulfilled by any of Ubuntu's repositories: cacao-oj6-jre-headless.

** Changed in: ca-certificates-java (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

Invalid depend: sun-java6-jre-headless

Version: 20081028

Hello,

In fact, this a bug re-report, since I have seen that there was already a bug mentioned in mail lists, but I haven't been able to find it in launchpad.
I literally write here the old description from this mail [1]:

"ca-certificates-java has an alternate depend on sun-java6-jre-headless.
However, this package does not exist. There's no headless version of
the non-free Sun JRE package. ca-certificates-java should depend on
sun-java6-jre instead of sun-java6-jre-headless."

I'm working on Guadalinex (Ubuntu derivated distro) and we are using sun-java6, and we get installed openjdk* because of this issue.

Cheers :]
