  • Say... what? I have no such dir, and got no such errors...

    In fact, to find this, I did :
    apt-get source sun-java6-jre
    fgrep "cow" sun-java6-6-03/debian/* -R

    And I find no references to cows. You sure it's not a previously misconfigured package?
  • I even tried performing a complete uninstall of everything Java and
    then reinstalling and it still failed. As I was poking around the
    internets looking for a solution I found someone offering this tidbit
    of info. I knew the problem I was having was somewhere in the postinst
    script, so I greped in it looking for "cow" to no avail. Willing to
    try anything I said, "what the hell", made the symlink and it worked.
    I was as shocked as you.

    I believe this is the web page I found that referenced that fix:
