This basically follows http://sylvestre.ledru.info/blog/sylvestre/2012/02/29/java_package_replacement_of_sun_java6
While a few applications (Grix and Grisu) I was playing with which require java 1.5 or better should work fine with openjdk-7 (1.6.0_24), they didnt. I had to run it using binary packages which I downloaded from java.com and then installed locally.
I'd like a better solution, and here it is:
1. sudo apt-get install java-package
2. Download the java files from java.com, e.g. jre-6u31-linux-x64.bin or jre-7u17-linux-x64.tar.gz
http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp?locale=en
3. Make-jpkg
Run make-jpkg on the downloaded file, whether it's ending in .bin or .tar.gz:
make-jpkg jre-6u31-linux-x64.bin
