  Thanks for the information, I didn't know there were free tools to
build against swing. However, I think that dropping the run-time
dependency against sun's java is a mistake, as unless I am very much
mistaken, the swing library pulled in by free-java-sdk is nothing but a
stub - there is no real code behind (else most of the java packages
would already be in debian main). However, if you can prove me wrong,
I'd be very happy !
