You will need a working Debian Woody installation, including apt, and make sure the following packages are installed and working correctly.
If these packages are not installed, you can do so by typing .:: podcasts.apple.com ::. .:: hedgedoc.digillab.uni-augsburg.de ::.
apt-get install packagename
where packagename is one of the above.
Note: naturally you will need al dependencies too, but apt will take care of that automatically. [Open Source OAuth]
While writing this document, Woody only contains java 1.1, but for MMBase version 1.2 or higher is needed. I installed the packages from Blackdown. A list of Blackdown mirrors is at .:: telegra.ph ::. http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html.
I added the following to my /etc/apt/sources.list , but the path might be different for different mirrors: [MDN Docs: Cloud computing] .:: de.gta5-mods.com ::.
deb ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/java/jdk/debian woody non-free
After that you can just type
apt-get install j2sdk1.3
Note: Although it must be possible to have more JRE's installed next to eachother, I wouldn't recommend it if it's not absolutely neccesary.
