Installing java 1.6/6.0 on Jaunty

[robinc]

Hi Guys, I'm having some trouble installing JRE 1.6/6.0 on a Jaunty server, any help would be very much appreciated, as I'm going round in circles on Google.

if I try this

apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

I get


Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package sun-java6-jdk is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package sun-java6-jdk has no installation candidate


if I try

apt-get install sun-java6-jre

I get:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package sun-java6-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package sun-java6-jre has no installation candidate


Here is my sources file.
