Public bug reported: I installed jmol as follows: sudo apt-get install jmol
Then I tried to run it: jmol The program did not start and I got the messages Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError Caused by: java.awt.HeadlessException at sun.awt.HeadlessToolkit.getScreenSize(HeadlessToolkit.java:282) at org.openscience.jmol.app.jmolpanel.JmolPanel.<clinit>(Unknown Source) I found out that one necessary dependence - java runtime - was missing. (After installing the package default-jre the program jmol is normally usable.)
