I just had a chat with Rene Engelhard (debain package manager vor OOo) and he confirms that you would still need a JRE for the runtime features. GCJ/GCC 4.x is only helpfull for compile time at the moment.

So .. Jean's initial statement is still valid (no matter if you are using Sun provided builds or not). At least the Unbuntu packages are 99.9% identical to those built by Rene.


But I thought the idea was that all Java code in OOo would be compiled with GCJ (in the Debian release) so Debian can have full OOo functionality without the JRE.

Sooner or later this will happen, but Debian does not have fast release cycles
