I second the wish that a description was in my face at the time of the update. Once somebody blocks an update such as this the burden of security is on them. I was at 6.29 using my overwrite method mentioned above. This update blew all that away since it was designed to deal with the insecure 6.26.
Regarding the somewhat off topic scenario... I got fed up with dealing with typical manual methods but I'd suggest trying to satisfy each dependancy one at a time... Or... You could try my method in the fourth post above and then if you don't lke PPAs, disable the PPA when you are done. After that copy the latest jre over the top of the old jre. Go to the java test page in your favorite browser and it will show you that you have the latest version. Next time you update just repeat the workaround process (copy over the previous version). It works/worked for me. Hopefully we won't need to do this too long. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905026 Title: Browser plugin not working after upgrade to Sun jre 1.6.0_26-b03 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+bug/905026/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
