apt still exists in 6u30, so should be kept for compatibility (the
entire point of this nuisance).
java_vm is in jre/bin/ rather than bin/ . So it needs special casing.
I've added a whole function for this purpose to keep it in the same
style ...
Here's a (rough) patch for Cédric's consideration. This only handles
Oracle JDK6, I haven't looked at Oracle JRE6/JRE7/JDK7, it could
probably be done better. The only file patched is
lib/oracle-j2sdk1.6/install .
