Unfortunately the Oracle JDK is not available as debian package but there’s a way to make it. This is where WebUpd8 Team PPA comes in as they provide installer for java6, java7 and java8.

Below is the script I use to install it unattended. You can download it also from github gist. If you want Java6 then just use oracle-java6-installer and for Java 8 oracle-java8-installer. This also works other ubuntu versions just substitute trusty with the code of your ubuntu release like precise for Ubuntu 12.04. Hope you find this useful.
