You can simply make a clean install of Java.
-sudo update-alternatives --remove "java" "<javaPath>"
-sudo update-alternatives --remove "javac" "<javacPath>"
-sudo update-alternatives --remove "javaws" "<javawsPath>"
-sudo rm -r /usr/lib/jvm/jdk*
-sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove openjdk*
-sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove openjdk*
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install default-jre
-sudo apt-get install default-jdk
I don't want to reinstall Java every time I want to clear the cache.
