Hi Emmanuel,

I didn't run into any problems building or installing without ksh, so am
uploading the current version with the build-dep change along with a
couple of other minor lintian tweaks.

I did try updating to 8u45-14, which is the version returned by
http://87.98.165.193/checkjdk.php, but step in debian/orig-tar.sh that
try tries to fetch that version from hg.openjdk.java.net spews some
python exceptions that I wasn't certain how to deal with.  I will try
take a look at updating once I get a few other things off my plate -
namely, the jnr-ffi ports.

Cheers,
tony
