Cassandra deb should depend on libjna-java
------------------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-2803
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2803
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Packaging
            Reporter: paul cannon
            Priority: Minor


Cassandra debs (0.7, 0.8, trunk) currently include a Recommends: for 
libjna-java, the package that includes the JNA jar. The original reason for the 
Recommends: instead of Depends: was that it's technically possible to run 
without JNA.

However, since (a) I know of no reason not to use JNA, and (b) the Cassandra 
RPMs already require JNA, let us change this Recommends: to Depends: for all 
future debs.

I don't believe this affects the licensing issues which stopped us from 
bundling JNA with cassandra directly.
