Hi. No, it isn't in Debian. Sun's licence violates Debian's policy
on software licensing.
Download the j2sdk-1_4_2_02-linux-i586.bin file from Sun's web sight.
Install the java-common package to read about Java in Debian. There are
instructions in /usr/share/doc/java-common.
That's how I installed it on this system.
Hope this helps.
