Hi,

I installed Debian 5 and I'm following Installation Manual. Everything worked well until I came to this line of code:

aptitude install opsi-coniged

It gives me the following error:

If I try to force the install the result it the same. I tried installing other java package, I used the command

update-alternatives --config java

to point to version 1.6 but nothing helps.

Now what?

Thanks

Dejan

the default Debian install does not have the neccesary repository, which contains the java packages.

Thanks for your answer.

Do you know what repositories are missing that I should add to source.list ?

Cheers,

Dejan

The sun-java6.. packages are in the Debian

non-free

repository
