Package: java-wrappers
Version: 0.1.25
Severity: wishlist

Hi.

When you launch a graphical Java program you have to make sure to pick a
JRE which isn't headless. Otherwise the program will obviously halt
immediately. See for example:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=708543

It would be useful to have in java-wrappers the possibility to filter
the available JREs depending on whether they're headless or not.

Thanks, Gio.
