One could argue -java-common should suggest or recommend a JRE, but I am a bit wary of that, as said, you don't _need_ it for "normal" LO operation. If LO notices there's no JRE it will tell people. *And* it will also tell people to install libreoffice-java-common if people want/need Java suport and there's no JRE. The necessary mechanism for that is in ure. > > # apt-get -s install libreoffice default-jre- | grep '^Inst' | egrep > > 'nlpsolver|report-builder|wiki-publisher' > > Inst libreoffice-report-builder-bin (1:5.2.5-2 Debian:testing [amd64]) > > Inst libreoffice-wiki-publisher (1.2.0+LibO5.2.5-2 Debian:testing [all]) > > > > So nlpsolver didn't go in (reasonable), only the bin package of > > report-builder was installed (huh?), and wiki-publisher went in just > > fine (will that even work in light of its hard dep on lo-java-common?). > > That is interesting, though.

Will add a dependency on the JRE to libreoffice-wiki-publisher. That was indeed missing. No idea whether it will make stretch, though. Regards, Rene
