    [SOLVED] How to download java packages in linux?

    Hello all,

    I am running Debian Squeeze. How can I download packages in Java? For example I need the javax.mail package.

    In windows, I simply download the JAR and point my classpath to that JAR.... How does this work in linux/debian? Is there apt-get command that I can use to get java packages?

    Thanks!

    Thank you!

    I manually just FTP'ed my JAR file from my Windows box to my Debian box.

    Also note to others coming from windows background is that the path separator is a colon not semi-colon. That took me awhile to figure out!
