Or just remove the standard installation if you don't want to use it at all.

Re: Howto install Oracle's Java on LMDE/Debian

added links for java, jar, javaws etc to /usr/local/bin and the mozilla plugin
removed openjdk stuff using synaptic

removed openjdk stuff using synaptic
Re: Howto install Oracle's Java on LMDE/Debian
Can't remove openjdk6 on Debian without openjdk7 getting installed.
Code: Select all
$ apt-get remove openjdk-6-jre -s
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

Re: Howto install Oracle's Java on LMDE/Debian
I have been using Ubuntu 12.04 which seems ok. I have just tried Mint 13 and I see exactly what you mean. Removing Open 1.6 causes Open 1.7 to be installed, and removing 1.7 causes 1.5 to be installed!!! It's like a recurring nightmare.craigevil wrote:Can't remove openjdk6 on Debian without openjdk7 getting installed.
Must be a mistake.
A work-around is to install Java in /opt (or somewhere) and put symblic links to it's bin files in /usr/local/bin. These links will be found first.

Re: Howto install Oracle's Java on LMDE/Debian
I guess I can remove whatever I want because I still have Gnome and Cinnamon installed (although not using them).
Depends on what is more important for you, craigevil. "Half of Gnome" or an insecure OpenJDK.
From stability and performance point of view I can't notice a difference between Oracle and Open.

Re: Howto install Oracle's Java on LMDE/Debian
I have had problems with OpenJDK.
Oracle Java definitely works and is always up to date, by definition. Both are free. So why choose anything else?
I confess I am not sure what the point of OpenJDK is. I am aware of the open-source, crusading thing that some pursue, but in terms of having Java on my linux PC I find OpenJDK an irritating distraction. The lack of choice in Mint's Synaptic is a little concerning.

For all alternatives look at the bottom of this page:

mintybits, I don't want to teach you but maybe you could give this a read: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html
There are also some "performance crusaders". I think Debian is still happy to call themselves GNU.
