There was a recent ubuntu-devel post by Matthias Klose on why we should
keep -gcj recommends for now.
However keeping it here means a server installation of (for example)
tomcat6 will pull in lots of unwanted X libraries through libecj-java-
gcj -> libgcj-bc -> libgcj9-0 -> libgcj9-0-awt.
So I still think we have a good reason to downgrade it to "Suggests"
here. Furthermore, I don't think libecj-java needs libecj-java-gcj in
"all but unusual installations"...
Another way around this might be to drop the libgcj9-0-awt "Recommends"
in libgcj9-0. Let me know if that would be a preferred way to fix this.
