Not the language, the app owned by Oracle. Java is propietary software, and I have some programs written in java. Can I replace it or not?

Hi there,

You can replace the proprietary Oracle package with OpenJDK (http://openjdk.java.net/). That's a free Java version. :-)

It sounds like you're a few years behind the times... OpenJDK isn't even some unofficial reverse-engineered thing. It's official, hosted on Oracle's servers, and as of Java 7 it's the reference implementation. You don't even get the proprietary Java runtime environment on most GNU/Linux systems unless you specifically go hunting for it.

In Debian-based systems, and this includes Trisquel, just install the "default-jre" package for the runtime environment, and the "default-jdk" package for the development kit. If you want the Java plugin, install the "icedtea-plugin" package.
