There is none. Debian java policy doesn't yet handle the problem with one JVM can run and others can not run a java app. Thats why we had the big discussion about a month ago. /usr/bin/java can be anything from IBM1.1 over sablevm and kaffe to SunJDK1.4. My advise (highly biased :) try to get your app working with kaffe or gij and call them directly. The other choice is to use /usr/bin/java (which is current policy) and wait for the bugreport, that your app can't be run on the users system. Or wait for a policy change :) In that future, you will have to name all JVMs, which work and add them to your Depends and to a call to 'findjava' (all done via some debhelper command) and that script will figure out the right start command.
