the bug requested the suggestion, because the bug submitter didn't understand 
the difference between these two packages. it's current practice/policy to have 
such a recommendation for the corresponding -gcj package. if you want to have 
this changed, please address this on the debian-java ML, and don't change it on 
a per package basis.
