If libpgjava actually requires something more that what's provided by
jdk1.1(-runtime)?, why doesn't it declare a dependency on jdk1.1-dev.

FWIW, jdk1.1 should really packaged as jre1.1, but isn't going to be
for Hysterical Raisins.  Expecteding any sort of development
environment with it is totally bogus.

Perl is really designed more for the guys that will hack Perl at least
20 minutes a day for the rest of their career.  TCL/Python is more a
"20 minutes a week", and VB is probably in that "20 minutes a month"
group. :) -- Randal Schwartz
