Error downloading jce_policy-6.zip on 0.2.8 tag

[D. Stuart Freeman]

When running the 0.2.8 tag (currently the latest) I get the following error, it looks like Oracle might have changed up their site so the scraping for the jce_policy-6.zip path is broken.

[x] Downloading jce_policy-6.zip :    --2013-06-19 15:18:27--  http://jce_policy-6.zip/

When I edit the script to include a hard link to the Oracle site "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jce_policy/6/" the script will continue, but fails to build: Log: http://pastebin.com/MfBj7q5e

Boboss74 fix still fail when building the packages. According to the log:

binsize=$(wc -c jdk-6u45-linux-i586.bin | awk '{print $1}'); \
    zipstart=$(unzip -ql jdk-6u45-linux-i586.bin 2>&1 >/dev/null | sed -n -e 's/.* \([0-9][0-9]*\) extra bytes.*/\1/p'); \
    tail -c $(expr $binsize - $zipstart) jdk-6u45-linux-i586.bin > tmp-jdk.zip
expr: syntax error
tail: jdk-6u45-linux-i586.bin: invalid number of bytes
make: *** [unpack-i586-stamp] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
11308's retcode: 2

it seems that dpkg-buildpackage is failing because either $binzise or $zipstart is invalid.

Package building is failing because the jdk-6u45-linux-i586.bin downloaded is not the correct file; it is an HTML file that says that login failed.

Oracle put all the older JDK versions behind a developer account login. This script cannot work for java6. If you want java6 I suggest using this method: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/java

Workaround:
First, goto the oracle website and download the following three files manually:

/var/local/oab/pkg/jce_policy-6.zip
/var/local/oab/pkg/jdk-6u45-linux-i586.bin
/var/local/oab/pkg/jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin

Note: These urls are currently working:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce-6-download-429243.html

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html#jdk-6u45-oth-JPR

Next, patch oab-java.sh so that it will not attempt to download because we have already manually downloaded the files and placed them in /var/local/oab/pkg/.
