Title:
  Ant Dependency on OpenJDK-6-jre

Status in “ant” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ant

  Hi,

  The ant should not have a tight dependency on openjdk-6-jre.

  If Java is already installed (e.g., Sun's Java Development Kit), there
  is no reason to install the openjdk-6-jre when ant is installed.

  Otherwise two Java Virtual Machines will be installed on the same
  machine, which is redundant in many ways.

  Please remove the tight dependency. Instead, if no version of Java can
  be found on the machine, then install OpenJDK. Otherwise, don't.
