Matthias, I'm not sure I agree with that; there are plenty of Java
applications which have no GUI, and which it'd be nice to be able to
compile without needing to install all the X stuff. I'm still tooling
around with ecj to see if that alone will be suitable for what I'm
working on, but if it isn'
I'm going to reject this report; for development, the awt has to be
present; as you noted, the runtime doesn't explicitely depend on the X
and gtk stuff.

Versions prior to 4.0.2-3 did not have the hard-dependency of gcj to
libgcjX-dev: From the changelog:
* Let gcj-4.0 depend on libgcj6-dev, instead of recommending it.
This is not necessary for byte-code compilations, but for
compilations to native code. For compilations to byte-code, use
I've got a test box at home that just got a clean Dapper install; I'll
try ecj-bootstrap on it tonight.

Hm.
That is tricky, but also really annoying for people who just want to one
or two Java components (in our case, we just needed to be able to
compile Jing) to use in a server setting. Perhaps a '-nox' package could
be provided, similar to what's already done for people who want Emacs in
a non-X11
Oops, did not check libgcj7-dev, there the hard-dependency is. But in a
way it is in a way logical since gui is one of the features why java got
popular (I know, there are a lot of other reasons, but it is). The only
sane solution I see at the moment would be, to make a libgcj7-awt-dev
(or a libgcj
Gert, I went back and tried 'aptitude install --without-recommends' and
still got a huge list of packages, including all the GUI stuff. If I
later try to uninstall any of it, I'm told that gcj will be removed as
well.

And to re-emphasize, even if this is because of recommended packages to
go with gij, this still shouldn't be the case -- 'apt-get install gcj'
should not be saying it needs GTK and Cairo...

As far as I can see, the GUI-related libraries are installd only as a
dependency for libgcj7-awt, the java gui stuff, which, as far as I can
see is only a recommondation for gij, not a hard dependency.
