Thanks for the input. Yeah, I meant to try the 'free-java-sdk' since it is default in Debian Testing. But looking up Debian Java faq, I noticed that things are more complicated than that. More sdk/jvm are available, and I can't tell which one is better than others by just reading the faq. Ok, let's forget the debian java packages and consider a simple question: I'm not just trying to compile a couple of small java programs. I want to use Java. Nowadays, many utilities are released in Java. Big monsters that comes to my mind are, eclips, jbuilder, together, IBM db2 control center, etc. What would be the best/safest java sdk package to use for such case, and all those ready built .jar files?
