Hi Adam, This is our policy for packaging Java libraries (this is caught by Lintian with the needless-dependency-on-jre tag). The dependency on the runtime is declared by the package using the library. For example libtomcat8-java doesn't depend on a JRE, tomcat8 depends on libtomcat8-java and requires java7-runtime-headless.
