Package: icedtea6-plugin
Version: 6b18-1.8.7-2~squeeze1
Severity: important
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

To work around Bug#642734, I installed icedtea6-plugin (and openjdk6-jre)
from squeeze.  Unfortunately when I try to use it to view an applet in
chromium, the result is a dialog box about not being able to launch
the "java" executable.  On the console I see a message:

 /tmp/buildd/openjdk-6-6b18-1.8.7/build/../plugin/icedteanp/IcedTeaNPPlugin.cc:1506: thread 0x7fde0fd631c0: Error: Failed to spawn applet viewer: Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/amd64/../../bin/java" (No such file or directory)

Indeed, "java" seems to be in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/bin,
not /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin.

Known problem?  Any ideas for tracking it down?
