Java6 repository missing

Asked by Jan Arkema

When trying to install the Java6 Plug In in the Synaptic Package Manager, it indicates that some files are missing from the repository. This should be a really easy fix. Here is the error message:

You seem to need to run:

sudo apt-get update

First then try the command you used to generate the output above

You can also use this big command:

cd ~; mkdir ./ji; cd ji; wget http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/s/sun-java6/sun-java6-jre_6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04_all.deb; wget http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/s/sun-java6/sun-java6-plugin_6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04_i386.deb; wget http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/s/sun-java6/sun-java6-bin_6-16-0ubuntu1.9.04_i386.deb; sudo dpkg -i *.deb; sudo apt-get -f install

Should be ok.
