Unable to locate package oracle-java7-installer（出现错误 jdk1.7）

 

Was installing Java today, this is an easy install thanks to " ppa:webupd8team/java", but when I tried it was not working, but has worked for me all this while. Little goggling around found me a solution. Here is full conversation if you wanted to have a look  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2048793
