On my previous Pear Linux tutorial I wrote how to install Oracle Java on Pear Linux 7 manually. Unfortunately by installing Java using this method we must re do the installation in order to get the update of Java. There is a smarter way to install Java on Pear Linux by adding Oracle Java PPA to Pear Linux. Thanks to webupd8 team for providing the PPA repository.
Add Java PPA repository to Pear Linux 7
1. Open Terminal and type the following command
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
2. Now install Java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer
By installing java this way we can easily get any Java updates in the future. Simply update and upgrade your system and Java will also updated automatically.
