Package: sablevm
Version: 1.11.3-1.1
Severity: normal

The sun-j2sdk1.5 package, generated with make-jpkg command (from java-package),
seems to declare "alternatives" priority 315, whereas the sablevm declares
350. Because...

1) more Java programs run on Sun's JVM than on sablecc,
2) probably no program runs on sablevm that doesn't run on Sun's and
3) a person knows what she's doing if she's created a .deb of
   the non-free JVM with java-package

...I think sablevm should less that JDK in "alternatives".
Other "alternatives" on my system are different versions of gij-wrappers,
whose score ranges from 33 to 40.

Sablevm is probably more compatible that gij-wrappers (just a guess, though),
so how about reducing the score from 350 to 250?
