[Bug 887077] Re: alternatives are not updated to new paths

 

I just noticed the same on amd64. After the oneiric->precise upgrade,
I'm left with

  /etc/alternatives/javac -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/javac

but the binary is in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac

I purged and reinstalled openjdk-6-jdk, the alternatives are correct
now. So this needs fixing on upgrade.
