Hi,

libgnome, gnomevfs and gconf have long been deprecated and replaced
upstream by GTK+, GIO/GVFS and dconf.

On a typical stretch desktop/GNOME installation, openjdk-8-jre (*) seems to
be the only remaining package which pulls in those old libraries via
  Recommends: libgnome-2-0, libgnomevfs2-0, libgconf2-4

We don't want those old libraries installed by default though.

Which functionality of openjdk is still relying on those libraries?

Please consider demoting this to Suggests or dropping it completely.

Regards,
Michael

(*) openjdk-8-jre is pulled via libreoffice
