Rico,
~    I am currently testing your patch from Bug# 264137 for all the
current IBM JDKs on PowerPC and x86 before committing.  Please contact
me individually and let's talk so as to coordinate your effort and
valuable contribution.  Also, you may like to join us on IRC at
irc.freenode.net, channel #debian-java.  My nick is barryh.
~    Joerg will have to approve any mods to update-alternatives, but that
certainly sounds like a useful option..

Regards,
