OK, but there's still no man page. Did *you* try it?

$ apt-show-versions | grep icedtea-java7
$ apt-show-versions | grep openjdk
openjdk-6-jdk/hardy uptodate 6b07-0ubuntu1
openjdk-6-jre/hardy uptodate 6b07-0ubuntu1
openjdk-6-jre-headless/hardy uptodate 6b07-0ubuntu1
openjdk-6-jre-lib/hardy uptodate 6b07-0ubuntu1
$ sudo update-alternatives --config javaws

There are 2 alternatives which provide `javaws'.

  Selection    Alternative
-----------------------------------------------
 +        1    /usr/lib/j2se/1.4/bin/javaws
*         2    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/javaws

Press enter to keep the default[*], or type selection number:
$ man javaws
man: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/javaws.1.gz is a dangling symlink
No manual entry for javaws
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
$ ls -l /usr/share/man/man1/javaws.1.gz
