Ubuntu to install jdk1.6

I was trying to install jdk1.6 onto my Ubuntu 10.04.

However, It looks like jdk1.6 is no longer available in Ubuntu repository(at least, i havent found it yet).

In my case, I need to install jdk1.6 as my java version instead of openjdk.

Could anyone tell me if it still could be found in anywhere?

Thanks.

I suggest installing it manually. Use the following link and use update-alternatives. The instructions are for 1.7 but they work for 1.6. Just get it from sun's site.

You can download JDK from java.sun.com and install it yourself. The reason its not included because it needs you to accept their license agreement.

HTH.
