How can I install Java from the command line only? [closed]
Solution 1:
A better solution is to install default java:
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
This will install all of the latest packages for the default jdk product.
Solution 2:
Do you want Oracle Java or is OpenJDK fine?
For example, to install OpenJDK version 1.6 of just the jre you would type
sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre
