[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#818350: imagej dependences

[Alexis PM]

Package: imagej
Version: 1.46a-1
Severity: wishlist

In Wheezy, the package 'imagej' has as dependencies 'openjdk-6-jre' or 'sun-java6-jre'. 
This requires that I need to install 'openjdk-6' to use 'imagej' on my machine where I have installed only 'openjdk-7' and I run properly many Java-based applications as 'libreoffice' or 'pdfsam'.
libreoffice-base has as Java dependencies a wide range of options, included  java5-runtime, a virtual package provided by default-jre, gcj-4.6-jre, gcj-4.7-jre, gcj-jre, openjdk-6-jre, openjdk-7-jre.
pdfsam has as Java dependencies openjdk-6-jre or java2-runtime, a virtual package provided by default-jre, gcj-4.6-jre, gcj-4.7-jre, gcj-jre, openjdk-6-jre, openjdk-7-jre.
In my Wheezy, I installed Wheezy's imagej forcing dependencies (see below) and it seems to work well, so seems unnecessary to install 'openjdk-6' in addition to 'openjdk-7'.I propose, if possible (I do not know if the policy of versions in 'stable' allow this), a new version of imagej in Wheezy what incorporate as Java dependency option java5-runtime or java6-runtime (or perhaps java2-runtime).
Thanks!
