Re: Emulator Trouble

Not sure if this issue has been resolved yet, but I would like to post a few ideas as to why this might be happening.

By default Debian will try to use the OpenJDK for all java related activities in order to comply with their FSG (Free Software Guidelines). This many times will cause problems with application wanting the official compiler.

The reason that it says OpenOffice must be uninstalled is that the OpenOffice packages in the Debian Archives rely on an installed JRE, therefore apt will not let you remove the JRE.

I would say you should run these commmands to try resolve this problem:

"sudo aptitude reinstall sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-jre"

then

"sudo aptitude purge openjdk-6-jdk openjdk-6-ire"

If that doesnt help just go ahead and post back.

Hoping my knowledge as a Debian Maintainer comes in handy,
Luke Cycon
