Oh, that's not nice that jabref blocks the removal of openjdk-6-jre. Thanks for pointing it out! > After some superficial testing I did not run into any problems.

Since sun-java6-jre is gone, default-jre might make sense. I'd just have to check on other architectures, maybe openjdk-7-jre | openjdk-6-jre is better, if default-jre pulls in an incompatible JRE somewhere. Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
