LimeWire & java??

[Bob Hemus]

Folks, I new here. Usually ask linux-users at linux-sxs.org. I trying to install LimeWireLinux.deb. I keep getting:

Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: sun-java5-jre|sun-java6-jra|sun-java5-jdk|sun-java6-jdk

Where do I want to copy them? Ie got ?em in /usr/share/java, now.
Thanks, Bob

This message is saying that you need one of these packages installed,
and listed in the dpkg control files (ie shown by dpkg -l).

They are available in the multiverse repository. Add that repository,
then install whichever of the four packages you want to use.
sun-java5-jre and sun-java6-jre are the run-time packages, while
sun-java5-jdk and sun-java6-jdk are the full development packages. Java
6 may not be available for dapper, but is available for edgy in
edgy-backports (described in the Software Sources application on edgy as
'Backported updates' in the internet updates tab).

The Ubuntu package will install in standard locations. If you have
installed from a Sun binary distribution, you need to remove that
installation and replace it with the equivalent Ubuntu package. This
will satisfy the dependency that the LimeWire package is missing.

sun-java5-jre and sun-java6-jre should be in feisty's multiverse. Do
you have multiverse enabled?

Try 'apt-cache policy sun-java5-jre'. If that says it can't find a
package, then you do not have multiverse enabled.

Also, you may want to checkout www.frostwire.com instead of limewire.

Thanks, I'm downloading FrostWire now. I've got sun-java5-jre installed as per Tim's instructions. Haven't tried to re-install LimeWire, yet.
