What you might try is instead of installing "sun-java6-jdk", try installing "sun-java6-jre". For example, what happens if you try "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre"?

I downloaded java 6 jdk from sun and was able to extract and run the bin in my home directory; however, the sdk wasn't available system wide, or perhaps some classpaths need to be set somewhere like in Windows. So, I started googling. I found some people recommended using Synaptics to install. After editing a config file to search multiverse and universe, Synaptics reports that it cannot resolve/install dependencies, and so it cannot install the jdk. I also work with Flex, but at the moment I just want to get java 6 sdk installed "system wide" so that Aptana can find it, and so it is available to all users of this system. Thanks!
