Well, sun-java6-plugin cannot be installed since you don't have sun-java6-bin. sun-java6-bin on the other hand has problems in finding some files. But what on earth is sun-java5-bin doing in the installation of java6 ? And sun-java6-jre isn't even mentioned in your list, but still both -plugin and -bin is depentent on -jre.
"Error: could not find Java 2 Runtime Environment.". Where's your -jre ?

Try installing only
sun-java6-bin
sun-java6-jre
sun-java6-plugin

and will see if the lack of -java5- is helping us.
