Title:
  Mixed Java command versions after installing openjdk-7-jdk

Status in “openjdk-7” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On a new Oneiric i386 machine I ran 'apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk'.
  This machine had no Java installed previously.  Installing this
  package required installing openjdk-6-jdk, as well as the -jre for
  both versions 6 & 7.  After the install was complete I was left with
  this awful result...

  # java -version
  java version "1.6.0_23"
  OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11pre) (6b23~pre11-0ubuntu1.11.10)
  OpenJDK Client VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode, sharing)

  # javac -version
  javac 1.7.0_147

  Thats right, my javac command uses JDK7 but my java command uses JRE6.

  Looking in /etc/alternatives for symlinks to Java-related executables,
  i see 13 links to Java6 programs, and 28 links to Java7 programs.

  Here is the alternatives information for 'java' command

  # update-alternatives --display java
  java - auto mode
    link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
  /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java - priority 1061
    slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz
  /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/java - priority 1051
    slave java.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/jre/man/man1/java.1.gz
  Current 'best' version is '/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java'.

  And the same for the 'javac' command

  # update-alternatives --display javac
  javac - auto mode
    link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/bin/javac
  /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/bin/javac - priority 1051
    slave javac.1.gz: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/man/man1/javac.1.gz
  Current 'best' version is '/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/bin/javac'.
