Ok, then I'm degrading and retitling the bug report. I still hope
someone in the Java team to have some suggestion about how to handle
this problem.

It lives!
Thanks.
I don’t know why this package was uninstalled or not installed.

Oh yes, my bad about the architecture.

Anyway, I'd say that the problem is that you have installed:
 * openjdk-6-jre
 * openjdk-7-jre-headless, but not openjdk-7-jre (can you confirm? If
you install openjdk-7-jre, does the bug get solved?)

Geogebra ensures (via its dependencies) that there is at least one
complete (i.e., non headless) JRE installed, but then uses the most
recent one, even if that one is headless. Then GeoGebra dies, because it
requires a working GUI.

I don't know whether there is a general solution to this problem (i.e.,
detecting which installed JREs are non headless and using one of them).
Maybe the Java team has something to comment? (I had a look at
java-wrappers, but there seems to be no provision for this kind of problems)

Thanks.

Giovanni.

It sounds like you're using a headless JRE. Could you please check the
output of:

  java -version

and post it here? What happens if you launch:

  /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/bin/java -jar
/usr/share/geogebra/geogebra.jar

Thanks for your report.

Giovanni.

Bug#708543: geogebra: Geogebra crashes now on start

[Nicolas Patrois]

Package: geogebra
Version: 4.0.34.0+dfsg1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Geogebra used to work with Wheezy.
Now, it crashes on start:

> geogebra 
Exception in thread "main" java.awt.HeadlessException
at 
java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.checkHeadless(GraphicsEnvironment.java:207)
at java.awt.Window.(Window.java:535)
at java.awt.Frame.(Frame.java:420)
at java.awt.Frame.(Frame.java:385)
at geogebra.SplashWindow.splash(SplashWindow.java:178)
at geogebra.GeoGebra.main(GeoGebra.java:79)

In fact, I don’t know if it’s a Java bug (wrong version of Java) or a Geogebra 
bug.
