[Bug 512546] Re: make-jpkg created deb fails to install for sun-j2re1.6

[michael37]

Using java-package 0.42 in Ubuntu 9.10 to create deb to install Sun jre
1.6.0_18.

It fails sooner for me.

$ sudo dpkg -i sun-j2re1.6_1.6.0+update18_amd64.deb
Selecting previously deselected package sun-j2re1.6.

In addition to producing this error, I am using Firefox 3.6.  Due to changes in Firefox 3.6, NPAPI version of the plugin is required.  Which means I have to use /usr/lib/j2re1.6-sun/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so instead of /usr/lib/j2re1.6-sun/lib/amd64/libjavaplugin_jni.so.
