Hi there Lou, Please, how can I update-alternatives for Google Chrome (not Chromium)? I have this weird situation: Installed: (*) java-6-openjdk (*) java-7-openjdk (*) sun-java v. 1.7.0.6 # update-alternatives --get-selections | grep plugin chromium-javaplugin.so auto /usr/lib/jvm/j2re1.7-oracle/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so flash-mozilla.so auto /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so iceweasel-javaplugin.so auto /usr/lib/jvm/j2re1.7-oracle/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so mozilla-javaplugin.so manual /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/amd64/IcedTeaPlugin.so When verifying java with Chrome I get: A newer version of Java is available Please click the download button to get the recommended Java for your computer. Your Java version: Version 7 Update 3 But I don't have this version installed!! :-O When verifying java with IceWeasel: Congratulations! You have the recommended Java installed (1.7.0_06). Also, I'm trying to give Chrome the update-alternatives way, so I could test if my banking also accept version 7 of openjdk. It would be great to simple use something like: #update-alternatives --config chrome-javaplugin.so Thanks, Beco. PS. I installed java using this procedure: Downloaded jre-7u6-linux-x64.tar.gz from java site Issued: $ make-jpkg jre-7u6-linux-x64.tar.gz That creates: oracle-j2re1.7_1.7.0+update6_amd64.deb Then installed with dpkg. -- Dr. Beco A.I. research, Cognitive Scientist and Philosopher Linux Counter #201942 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
