The terminal view did not appear. It asked for acceptance of the sun lisence
and I somehow did not click next, my fault and then it went ahead and
installed a few other packages. Then when it finished I hit apply again and
it installed the sun package I assume but it did not ask for the lisence
again?

I did not check synaptic after that to make sure it was installed. I thought
it would re-ask for the lisence and I would install it again.

I will remove it if it did install and try again and see what happens. It
seems that it crashed when I did not agree to the lisence.

Hope that helps and is clear.
