If you're needing to install Sun's Java, you download it from the Java website, and install it according to the instructions. Otherwise, post useful information, like version/distro of Linux, what you're wanting to do, and what your question is. |

Even if you have installed "apt for rpm", I don't know, if it will work. One thing is sure : There is no 'aptitude' for EL5 / CentOS5. Aptitude is a pure Debian / Ubuntu tool. Try another package to test 'apt'. The usual install command for EL5 etc. is 'yum' Please read 'man yum'. "sun-java6-jdk" : Scientific Linux SL54 / SLC5 has java for EL5: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...ates/security/ .... Scientific Linux is a copy of RHEL like CentOS. ( # 'yum install jdk' , if the repo has been set up.) jdk-1.6.0_20-fcs.x86_64.rpm : http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...fcs.x86_64.rpm Install with # rpm -Uvh jdk-1.6.0_20-fcs.x86_64.rpm .. |
I was thinking the same thing, but since the OP never answered about version/distro, I figured I wouldn't ask again.

Following steps posted at http://blogs.gurulabs.com/dax/2009/0...va-appl-1.html works regarding the java 1.6.0 jdk installation.
1. Back on your 64bit system run: yum install java-1.6.0-sun java-1.6.0-sun-plugin.x86_64 On a 32bit system run: yum install java-1.6.0-sun java-1.6.0-sun-plugin 2. Optionally, if you want the JDK and not just the JRE (because you plan on compiling Java software), then run: yum install java-1.6.0-sun-devel The reason for "apt-get install aptitude" not working is unknown. |
