Mm.. what worries me about this is that if I (say) choose Kaffe as my
working JVM and my package has Depends: kaffe, then all other users are
forced to install kaffe even if my package happens to work on most or
all other JVMs.
Perhaps Depends: kaffe | java1-runtime to show the user that I know it
works on kaffe but to allow a user to install some other JVM instead?
