Mmmh, but I think this is a little bit inconsistent. If I use kaffe or
sablevm I have nothing to do. If I use gcj I must install libgcj7-awt.
What do you suggest me to do? Should I add a dependency on libgcj7-awt or
not? If yes, how can kaffe/sablevm user skip this, they don't need this
package.

@Guus: What do you think? Generating an EPS or PNG is not the only option
  with bootchart. Without the dependency it is possible to install a
  bootchart-view with fewer dependencies, maybe without X.

Ciao, Jörg.
