I am assuming that you need the JDK itself  If so you can accomplish this with   sudo add-apt-repository ppa sun-java-community-team sun-java6  sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk   You don t really need to go around editing sources or anything along those lines

You might have to use the version in the Lucid partner repository  I did this in Lucid  I used the version from Karmic multiverse  before I realized it had been moved to the partner repo   and it worked fine  Not sure where it went in Maverick though
