Public bug reported: have both openjdk-6-jre and openjdk-7-jre installed. Minecraft.jar requires 6. At some point, the file association for 6 disappeared (used to have options for both), and I can only associate the file with (incompatible) java 7, or archive manager (useless.) was working for several months. Total mystery how to create associations in unity, so stumped.
to reproduce, have a minecraft.jar on the desktop. click on it, something useless happens. right click to change file association, no options available for java6, in spite of it being installed.
