Cannot install on Trusty/'dependancy is not satisfiable: sun-java6-jre|sun-java5-jre' error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.trying to install 'Hawkscope 0.6.1-1_amd64.deb throws the java error 
'dependancy is not satisfiable: sun-java6-jre|sun-java5-jre'
2.does not work with oracle 8 jre installed.
3.does not work with oracle 6 jre installed.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expectation is 
installation/I see 'Package sun-java6-jre is not installed' instead.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.6.1-1 
amd64 on Ubuntu Trusty 64 which began as Zorin 9 64.


Please provide any additional information below.
  I'm a little new to the linux platform, but very persistent in learning [this time].
I know windows platforms inside-out 98-7, but wish to get away....
On windows I used a program 'FastFolders' by DeskSoft which was very similar to 
Hawkscope.
Any program like yours I would be happy with/If you know of another similar 
package without the Sun jre dependancy/It makes learning the folder structure 
much easier......Thanks in Advance.

  Of coarse i have tried installing through terminal/only way to install, then synaptics says its a broken package and removes it all....
  It appears your application requires SUN java/not Oracle Java?
  I am running Oracle java6 update 45/verified on javas site....and have everything
  set on 'auto' through terminal......

Hawkscope is fairly old and no longer supported, so deb packages are designed 
for outdated distributions. You can try using the no-intaller version, which is 
simply a jar file.

  Tried that early on / even with wine, no go.
  Is there any other programs that use a menu for launching, throughout the whole system.
  If not, thanks anyway.
