Still is, as far as I know...
Put this in /etc/apt/sources.list (after copying your original of
course)
# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016.1)]/
gutsy main restricted
#deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016.1)]/

Then -
sudo apt-get install sun-java6*

when it's done - 
sudo update-java-alternatives 

and select which components you'd like to be sun-java and which
you want to keep as default (usually a good idea to update them all
to one or the other)

That's it...
