Thanks for the logs. The reason it got removed is that it got removed
from 10.04:

$ rmadison icedtea-gcjwebplugin   
icedtea-gcjwebplugin | 1.0-0ubuntu5 | hardy/universe | source, amd64, i386
icedtea-gcjwebplugin | 1.0-0ubuntu8 | hardy-updates/universe | source, amd64, i386
icedtea-gcjwebplugin | 1.0-1ubuntu4 | intrepid/universe | source, amd64, i386
icedtea-gcjwebplugin | 1.0-1ubuntu4 | jaunty/universe | source, amd64, i386
icedtea-gcjwebplugin | 1.0-1ubuntu4 | karmic/universe | source, amd64, i386

It looks like it was replaced iwth icedtea-plugin without provided a
upgrade path.


** Package changed: update-manager (Ubuntu) => openjdk-6 (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu)

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: update-manager

Before upgrading from Karmic to Lucid beta 2, I had the icedtea6-plugin package installed and selected, and java applets were working in firefox. After upgrading,  icedtea6-plugin was deselected, and no java plugin showed up in firefox when I entered about:plugins in the URL bar. To make java applets work again, I had to do an apt-get install icedtea6-plugin to reselect the package. The package was still cached on my system; it just needed to be reselected manually.
