Installing Oracle's JDK-JRE Java in Ubuntu LTS 12.04
Installing the official Java from Oracle as of the first of the year became a much tougher process because Oracle pulled their repositories from out under Canonical and Ubuntu for reasons I have no clue of. Never bothered or have run across the real story, but none the less, an easy “apt-get” command line install no longer was supported and if you found a repo which was offering such a thing, they most likely have been pulled and debunked by The Man.
