Well, groovy source code is dynamically compiled to JVM bytecode so I think a JDK must be present. The startGroovy script tries to detect where in the system is installed javac. I didn't noticed this bug before because I always install a JDK. BTW, the patch don't apply cleanly on what is on svn because there is an ongoing work to package groovy 1.7.4 but it is stalled because jansi library it is not in Debian. I think I'm going to file an ITP for that library.
