I don't understand why a conditional dependency on jessie. Jessie could be installed along with jdk1.4 and provides better security! >>>I believe the addition of >>>the libjessie-java dependency is part of moving Tomcat 4 to main; >>>Wolfgang and Arnaud can best answer that.

No, jessie is a javax.net security provider, as saxon, gnujaxp, xerces are xml parsers. You can choose the one you want. I don't know why you don't wanna have jessie in your system. - -- .''`. : :' :rnaud `. `' `- Java Trap: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/java-trap.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDPcnE4vzFZu62tMIRAsHMAKCQXvkZGuZ+i6dDnAHLiD4QyQPs9QCfeCAA 3wTmy7DwE8XIWDrwogT/pWo= =zihh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
