not a bug, you need to accept their license on the website and download manually:

Setting up sun-java5-doc (1.5.0-15-0ubuntu1) ...
This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
J2SDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the
archives:
    jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip jdk-1_5_0-doc-ja.zip
(choose the non-update version if this is the first installation).
Please visit
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.html
now and download. The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
to /tmp.
