It would be better to set the dependency to java-runtime instead of jre so that openjdk6 users can install and test jgnash. If jgnash really fails to run with openjdk6 - I hadn't had any problems with openjdk6, yet - then a bug report should be filed to upstream of openjdk6 and/or jgnash. I don't think it's the matter of downstream to restrict the dependency and to force the user using jre instead of openjdk6. So, please, change the dependency to java-runtime. Heiko
