Package: jedit
Version: 5.0~pre1+dfsg-1ubuntu1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

The jedit package (>= 4.5) requires Java 6 or later to work, but now there is
no choice and openjdk-6-jre must be installed. As the openjdk-7-jre is
available (except Squeeze release), it should depend on it or provide
alternative for both JRE versions.

We can see the same situation in Ubuntu packages:
