README

* To be done :

- update java-package wiki page : http://wiki.debian.org/JavaPackage?action=edit&editor=text
- make symbolic links for j2se/jre/bin/* in j2se/bin/ to avoid duplication
- make symbolic links for j2se/jre/man/man1/* in j2se/man/man1 to avoid duplication
- make symbolic links for j2se/jre/man/ja_JP.UTF-8 in j2se/man/ja to avoid duplication
- install into a multiarch location to allow installing the i386 client vm on amd64 and ia64 (Matthias Klose <doko@ubuntu.com>)
- ? kinit, klist, and ktab not installed; handling of /etc/krb5.conf not addressed
