A "sudo" missing from the Java instructions in Dapper Desktop Guide

Hello,

I just followed the instructions at
http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/programming.html#java and
installed Java into my system (Dapper). The installation went otherwise
as instructed, but at phase 6. the following error message was shown:
"dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege". This was
solved by adding "sudo" to the beginning of the command. I guess "sudo"
should be added to the instruction too.

The preceeding commands worked as told without using sudo.

Cheers,

Ari
