So I installed the stable version of the java-package on unstable, and tried to make-jpkg the IBM package ibm-java-sdk-6.0-7.0-linux-ppc.tgz - sadly with no success: I could build the .deb package, with lots of errors, but it seems its java didn't work. This might have to do with either the fact that the stable (!) package does cover only a very old and meantime unavailable IBM version, namely ibm-java-sdk-6.0-0.0-linux-ppc.tgz or the fact that the unstable system here is only in parts updated to latest package versions .. If I have a little time I'll try to repeat the make-jpkg on a stable Debian on a Ti-Book - I'll post to this thread when I have results about it. > (under powerpc, amd64 whatever).

I you were talking about the sun-java6-jre package I recommend keeping it, if it works: It's latest version is un-installable on unstable ppc currently, for "unmet" dependencies.
