Why There is no Java 2 SDK ?
why there is no Java 2 SDK in official Responsy of Sarge ? or SID or WooDy ?
there is 3 powerfull Java RE ( Java SDK`s ) for LInux : ONE From SUn One from IBM and one from blackdown .... Blackdown Java has Deb packages : but it`s not on the official responsy ? WHY ? or there is some other j2RE in Responsy ? |
It's a license issue. Unlike most other distros, Debian strives to become a totally free operating system, as the term "free" is defined by the GNU philosophy. You are free to use some other distro if you like their policy on license issues better.
On the other hand, you can use some of the available workarounds to install Java SDK on your Debian system. The Blackdown version becomes available via apt-get if you add the following repository to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb ftp://ftp.tux.org/java/debian/ sarge non-free (This is for Sarge -- tweak it accordingly if you use Woody or Sid.) To install Sun's version of Java, check out dastrike's guide: http://serios.net/content/debian/java.php EDIT: Ooops, it seems that ftp.tux.org has repositories for sarge, sid, testing, and unstable so these will work but there's no repository for woody or stable. |
yes i know :) how to install JDK :)
the problem is this : im java developer so i want to build a deb package for the app with dependence some JDK in the responsy .. but there is NO JDK so no DEB or link for JDK witch is not user friendly btw Sun j2SDK is under the JPL license the other JDK`s under what license are . |
Sorry, I'm not a developer myself so I may have misunderstood your question. Ftp.tux.org offers a deb package for Blackdown Java(TM) 2 SDK (j2sdk1.4) for easy installation via apt-get but apparently this is not what you're looking for. :(

Debian does have something called free-java-sdk in the official repository. You might want to check it out...
