Merci pour ces informations.

En anglais pour ceux ne parlant pas français. The error is
=====

Affecting to sun-java6 but can't be reproduced in 8.04 ( sun-java6-plugin 6-07-3ubuntu2 )

Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!
