Package: java-gcj-compat Version: 1.0.77-2 Severity: wishlist From the package description of libmx4j-java, I can't imagine why it should be considered absolutely essential to the functioning of java-gcj-compat. And in fact, in some tests forcing the installation of java-gcj-compat-dev without it, it (and the base functionality of java-gcj-compat running ant) appears to work just fine. The reason I'm requesting this is that currently, my pbuildd scripts to break cycles in the Build-Depends of the Debian archive need approximately 20-30 scripts for libmx4j-java and all its build-dependencies, many of which shouldn't really be needed in my opinion. Also, by the way, I've been wondering about the idea of including the ant-optional tasks in the relevant packages they apply to, instead of in a monolithic ant-optional package. That would eliminate a few more of the cycle-breaker scripts, and besides that would make more sense in general, IMHO. Anyway, all of this is completely up to you. If there's a good reason for the dependency on libmx4j-java to be unconditional, then feel free to just close this bug, or at least tag it wontfix, with an explanation of why. -- Daniel Schepler
