Bug Description

The openjdk-6b18 source package was introduced in earlier releases specifically for the armel architecture because the newer releases of openjdk/icedtea 6 were failing to build on armel. The binary packages provided by the openjdk-6b18 are a subset of the same named packages provided by the openjdk-6 package, just with an earlier version.

 In precise and oneiric, the version icedtea-6 has been fixed to allow it to build (and works) on armel, and thus the binary packages from the openjdk-6b18 source are superceded by the packages from the openjdk-6 6b23 source. Furthermore, the openjdk-6b18 package FTBFS on oneiric and precise. These source packages should be pulled, at a minimum from precise, and probably from oneiric as well (if possible).

openjdk-6b18 provides the same binaries as openjdk-6. openjdk-6 (6b23~pre11-1ubuntu2) indeed built on armel.

I looked into oneiric and all of the binaries except openjdk-6-jre-zero are superseded by the openjdk-6 binaries. openjdk-6 does provide this package. Steve, can you comment on what is going on here?

Regardless of what is happening with openjdk-6-jre-zero, it's in universe and since all the other binaries are superseded, we can probably just mark this as "Won't Fix".
