I installed the new 11.10 Ubuntu on my girlfriends new computer (after several years of 10.04 for both of us) and neither of us like it.

I am trying to remove the Ubuntu environment and replace it with the Xubuntu environment as per the instructions on http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce using the following code:

When I try to run that code, I get the following error:



Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libaccess-bridge-java : Depends: default-jre but it is not going to be installed or
openjdk-6-jre but it is not going to be installed or
sun-java6-jre but it is not installable
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.


I was able to install the Xubuntu desktop metapackage by itself, but I still want to remove the Ubuntu desktop packages.

Any help? Thanks...

More info here:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java

The official recommendation is to install openjdk.
