I am trying to setup build enviroment for android on my ubunt10.04 machine. For that i want to install sun-java6-jdk as mentioned in source.andoid.com .
$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner"
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
But now I am getting the error as no package for sun-java6-jdk.
so I want to know how to install suitable jdk for android build set up.
Sun JDK was dropped from Ubuntu due to licensing nonsense: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Canonical-Will-Remove-Java-From-Ubuntu-241147.shtml . Use openjdk instead.
Although there is a ppa here https://launchpad.net/~sun-java-community-team/+archive/sun-java6 that lets you install the SunJDK, it’s very out-of-date and looks abandoned.
