ii  icedtea-plugin                         1.1.2-0ubuntu1
ii  java-common                           0.42ubuntu1
ii  openjdk-6-jre                          6b23~pre8-1ubuntu1
ii  openjdk-6-jre-headless         6b23~pre8-1ubuntu1
ii  openjdk-6-jre-lib                     6b23~pre8-1ubuntu1
ii  tzdata-java                               2011j-1

I will test and monitor this bug in later Oneiric installations.

  My intent was to replace Oracle's Java with OpenJDK. Oracle's Java comes from Canonical's Partner repo.
  $ sudo apt-get remove --purge sun-java6-* gcj-*
  $ sudo apt-get install --reinstall icedtea-plugin openjdk-6-jre
