Josiah,
I will try to take a look at it over the holidays and give you some
feedback. There are a few issues, but this doesn't really need a patch;
it's just a matter of me working through the tedious steps of adding
support for a new JRE/JDK version and its assoicated binaries for the
supported architectures. For future reference, please be sure to check
the existing bug reports to see if a given issue has already been
identified. A wishlist bug has been in place for supporting Sun's Java
6 SE since it was in beta[0]. That would be the most appropriate place
to attach a patch.
I have been pretty swamped with other stuff lately and have had very
little time for java-package. Another thing to note is that Java 6 SE
is going to be packaged for Debian and Ubuntu the same way Java 5 has
been. The java-package utility has served its purpose, but its purpose
has been superceded, so it is probably on its way out.
