Package: findbugs Version: 2.0.3+repack-2 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
would it be possible to move the GUI of findbugs to a separate package? Right now findbugs is a dependency of gradle-debian-helper (via gradle -> libgradle-plugins-java). Because of the GUI, findbugs depends on default-jre instead of default-jre-headless. Depending on default-jre means that installing gradle-debian-helper brings in many X11 and desktop components, like dconf, glib (and plugins), libasound2, gtk (both version 2 and 3), cairo, libx11, libwayland. In the end, installing the gradle-debian-helper requires installing about 400 MB of software. If the findbugs package contained only the command line version, it could depend on just default-jre-headless and avoid this long chain of dependencies.
