- Oracle Java 7
- Oracle has recently declared Java 7 to be fit for general use.
- Currently there are no .deb packages available for Oracle Java 7. The raw binaries (without installer) can be downloaded directly from Oracle (Oracle Java download page).
- Installing Oracle Java 7 by a script or from the command line
- You can install the newest and secure Oracle (Sun) Java 7 by a script (JRE only) or by a command line method. Both are easy to apply.
- Script (JRE only)
- Only supports Oracle (Sun) Java 7 JRE (which covers the needs of 99 % of all computer users). It pulls the packages from Oracle's website and installs them, comparable to the way Adobe Flash Player is being installed. Plus it adds a dedicated repository, from which you'll receive updates automatically.
