Package: jts
Severity: important
Hi
We are considering to remove kaffe from the repositories, since upstream is dead, it lacks
active maintaince from our side and we have free alternatives.
preferably you should switch to one of the following packages:
* default-jdk
* default-jre
* default-jre-headless
You should use default-jdk if you need to compile java-files into class-files (or/and copy
said files into a jar-file). Usually this is only used as a build-depend(-indep).
default-jre and default-jre-headless should be used when you need to run java programs (with
and without X11 support respectively).
