I've tried installing Sun JDK from sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eugenesan/java, it failed with the following:

Oracle JDK 7 is NOT installed.
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
oracle-java7-installer


So apparently it's trying to fetch a bad URL. I've installed Java manually, but now the package is stuck as a half-installed and every time I apt-get install anything, the error appears again.



apt-get install -f shows "1 not fully installed or removed." package and fails with the same error. I've tried dpkg -P oracle-java7-installer, but it fails as well.



How to remove this half-installed package?

Awww yeahh.. I've been able to finally remove after finding this post the following way: sudo find /var/lib/dpkg -exec grep -l "oracle-java7-installer" {} ; showed a bunch of files, I've added exit 0 to first line by typing sudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle-java7-installer.prerm, saved file and closed gedit. Finally, after I was back on command line, typed sudo dpkg -P oracle-java7-installer and it worked.
