The control file was modified in particular to be compatible with the make-jpkg created packages to work around older releases like Debian 6 squeeze:
https://wiki.debian.org/JavaPackage Unfortunately this was the closest we could find to a standard way of supporting a dependency against a Debian 6 built JDK 7 package. Its unfortunate openjdk 7 was never back-ported to squeeze, but these decisions are beyond us mere mortals. So as long as your package is built using the standard make-jpkg instructions, this should work for you. In our tests we've created a repo of a make-jpkg package for ourselves and it adequately works during our acceptance tests, so it should work for others in theory - (unless the package name was customised I suppose). If it doesn't work, provide the details of the created package and I'll take a look. ken.
