Good news: a software developer, member of the Dutch Ubuntu community, has kindly created a script that pulls Oracle Java from the Oracle website and installs it. I've tested a prototype on a 32 bit system, and it works fine.
He's not quite done with it yet (needs testing on 64 bit and some final polishing, and still needs to be transformed into a .deb package), but I expect he'll present it here within a week. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/890278 Title: sun java outdated To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/890278/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
