I would guess that at least some of the depending packages might break
if not used with gij. Rather than removing it, just build a deb of the
Sun JRE or JDK with make-jpkg (it's in java-package, which is in
multiverse), install that, and then use update-alternatives to make it
the default java interpreter.

Cheers,

Paul
