Title:
java alternatives missing after upgrade to precise
Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
after upgrading to precise, the java alternatives symlinks seem to be
broken, and not fixed by update-java-alternatives, which complains:
mbp@joy% sudo update-java-alternatives -v -s java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64
resetting java alternatives
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for appletviewer.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for apt.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for extcheck.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for idlj.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for jarsigner.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for java.
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for javac.
....
(or similarly with --auto)
the binary files do exist and the .jinfo file seems valid. It is true
there is no java alternative in /etc/alternatives.
