Bug Description

I upgraded edgy to feisty 1 and got the following error:

(translated from Dutch...)

Configuring sun-java5-plugin (1.5.0-10-0ubuntu1) ...
update-alternatives: can't create a symbolic link from /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins/libjavaplugin.so.dpkg-tmp to /etc/alternatives/iceweasel-javaplugin.so : No such file or directory
dpkg: error while processing sun-java5-plugin (--configure):
 subproces post-installation script returned error 2

I haven't even got the directory /usr/lib/iceweasel/

and the iceweasel package hasn't got a release candidate

I now removed the sun-java5-plugin package, to finish my install of feisty
