From looking at the output of update-alternatives --query java it appears to be this alternative that is causing the problem: Alternative: /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-3.3 Priority: 33 Slaves: java.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gij-wrapper-3.3.1.gz rmiregistry /usr/bin/rmiregistry-3.3 rmiregistry.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/rmiregistry-3.3.1.gz /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-3.3 is provided by gij-3.3 1:3.3.6-7 > Make your /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/java file available in the log > as well as the package name and package version that provides > /usr/bin/java /usr/bin/java is currently linked to /usr/bin/gij-4.4 (provided by gcj-4.4-jre-headless 4.4.1-1).

I tried removing gij-3.3 -- that fixed the problem and gcj-4.4-jre-headless, ecj, ecj-gcj, java-gcj-compat-headless, java-gcj-compat and java-gcj-compat-dev were all able to be configured correctly. No more errors from aptitude! Thanks for your help. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-gcc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
