If you need the real Sun JRE you can:

goto dir like /usr/local/src or wherever you put stuff you install that's not apt-get

download java-jre with duinsoft's install script

gunzip it

run the install script

find out whereis

link to it from /usr/local/bin

resart the shell

# lynx http://www.duinsoft.nl/pkg/pool/all/update-sun-jre.bin
# gunzip update-sun-jre.bin.gz
# sh update-sun-jre.bin
# cd /usr/local/bin
# ln -s /opt/java/32/jre1.7.0_09/bin/java
