Bug#407018: fop: fails to run when no X server present.

[Kuno Woudt]

Package: fop
Version: 1:0.20.5-5
Severity: normal


When trying to run /usr/bin/fop on a server which currently has no X
server running, it fails with the following error message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11
window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
        at sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment.initDisplay(Native Method)
            at
            sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment.<clinit>(X11GraphicsEnvironment.java:125)

My current work-around is to add 

export JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true

to the /usr/bin/fop script.  But it would be nice if this worked
out-of-the-box on debian.

Thanks.
