I tried to follow the instructions on the Debian Java FAQ,
to use latest unstable Galeon with Blackdown by creating the link:

  /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins:
  lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           35 Jun  7 03:48 libjavaplugin_oji.so 
-> /etc/alternatives/javaplugin_oji.so

  /etc/alternatives:
  lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           58 Jul  6 13:23 javaplugin_oji.so -> 
/usr/lib/j2se/1.3/jre/plugin/ppc/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so



        When launching Galeon I get:

~ $ galeon news.bbc.co.uk./
trying to load bookmarks from /home/leandro/.galeon/bookmarks.xbel
Detected version of bookmarks file: galeon2
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library 
/usr/lib/j2se/1.3/jre/plugin/ppc/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so 
[/usr/lib/j2se/1.3/jre/plugin/ppc/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol:

[/usr/lib/j2se/1.3/jre/plugin/ppc/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol: 
__vt_17nsGetServiceByCID]


        Searching in the list I understand j2re1.4 won't be packaged
for the PowerPC any soon, and that the current j2re1.3 situation is
hopeless due to C++ issues -- how braindeaded was AT&T when it could have
used Objective C or better yet functional programming!!

        So any ideas?  Any solution in view?
