I've had the same problem - javac is bound to 1.7, while java is bound 
to 1.6.  I tried removing the 1.6 packages, but 1.7 depends on them, and 
that got me into a terrible mess.

IIRC, this worked for me:

   sudo update-alternatives --config java

...and then choosing the 1.7 version.  I found I had to do this for all 
the commands in java-7-openjdk-*/bin that are symlinks:

  * java
  * keytool
  * orbd
  * pack200
  * policytool
  * rmid
  * rmiregistry
  * servertool
  * tnameserv
  * unpack200

Hmm, can't seem to find a javaws for 1.7.
