software installation - Unable to install jdk 6 after uninstalling jdk 7

Want to install fresh jdk 6 for Android development. Before I had jdk 7 installed which I removed for fresh jdk 6 installation. Tried using the webupd repository way, not of use, tried downloading the jdk from oracle and then unzipping it, not of use.



I want to know if removing these listed packages will help?



java -version
The program 'java' can be found in the following packages:
* default-jre
* gcj-4.6-jre-headless
* openjdk-6-jre-headless

* gcj-4.5-jre-headless
* openjdk-7-jre-headless
Try: sudo apt-get install


EDIT: in response to MrVaykadji :



I tried doing the commands ... after i executed the sudo apt-get install ----- I encountered this error message at the end of log:



update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for java. 

update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-oracle/jre/bin/ControlPanel to provide /usr/bin/ControlPanel (ControlPanel) in auto mode.
