18 IMO unless you're doing some really unusual/obscure java thing,
19 you don't want or need the blacktown-jdk. I'm guessing that if
20 you delete that and run revdep-rebuild you'll probably see those
21 other packages get rebuilt against the sun-jdk-1.6 and that will
22 get rid of the virtual jdk-1.4.2 for you.

24 But I'm not putting any money on it ;)
