Hi,

I thought I would put some of the points regarding build/runtime dependencies here so anyone who works on fixing these libraries would know.
1. default-jdk-builddep is only required if there is a arch specific <name>-gcj binary package being built.
2. Most of the libraries do not need any UI apis from java runtime (awt, swing) and hence should depend on 'default-jre-headless | java2-runtime-headless'. In case the libraries are using source compatibility with new java versions (1.5 or 1.6) then the dependency should be modified accordingly.
