Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tomcat5

Cleanly-installed Ubuntu Dapper system.

<tt>[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ apt-cache show tomcat5
Package: tomcat5
Priority: optional
Section: universe/web
Installed-Size: 336
Maintainer: Debian Java Maintainers 
<pkg-java-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>
Architecture: all
Version: 5.0.30-9
Depends: kaffe (>= 2:1.1.6-3) | java-gcj-compat-dev (>= 1.0.41-1) | 
java2-runtime, libtomcat5-java (>= 5.0.30-9), adduser (>= 3.34), apache-utils 
(>= 1.3.33-1) | apache2-common</tt>

Why can't sun-java5-jdk/jre/bin (whichever is necessary) be included in
the Dependency list?  Adding GCJ to my system has hijacked a couple of
other programs' start-up scripts on my system (Limewire and DB
Visualiser), causing me to have to produce work-arounds for those
programs to be able to start up.

I would prefer to not have GCJ on my system at all, as I have to use
Sun's Java for work.  GCJ is superfluous.
