– oracle changed license
– probably no more sun-java in Debian?
– how repository will be affect
– current user that installed sun-java may be exposed if not aware that apt will not update the package anymore
– new user who needs sun-java, how to proceed (do not point to oracle’s java site, the install is not practical for general users)
– etc
