Package: freemind Severity: important freemind declares a dependency on "j2re1.4 | java2-runtime". Is this really necessary? No such package exists, apart from the Blackdown kit (which is way too far out of date). Could "java2-runtime" be better replaced by some other dependency that is in the archive, or could freemind just be left with java-virtual-machine (which you do have) ?
To be more specific, I can grab the jre rpms from sun.com and convert them to debs using alien. But those Sun deb packages have the name "jre", not j2re1.4. Since freemind is in contrib and expects Sun's java packages to be installed anyway, then it should be free to use the ones that Sun actually provides. A dependency of "j2re1.4 | jre | java2-runtime" would cover it, I think. I'm marking this bug as important, since at the moment freemind will not install (without the Blackdown debs), even when Sun debs (converted rpms) are installed. Drew p.s. how does gcj or the other free java implementations currently manage with freemind? -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11 Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
