Bug Description
Binary package hint: bootchart
Currently bootchart has a hard dependency on java-gcj-compat.
TTBOMK, bootchart also works fine with other JREs, like suns, which I already have installed.
Please change the dependency on java-gcj-compat to java-gcj-compat | java2-runtime (or java1-runtime if that is sufficient).

It definitely works with sun-java5-bin and sun-java6-bin as my own tests showed.
Besides from changing the Depends in debian/control I also had to fix /etc/init.
It contained an absolute path to /usr/lib/
After changing that to /usr/bin/java, I could easily switch between different alternatives without problems.

Debian has java-runtime | java2-runtime as alternative dependencies for bootchart-view. Works very well with Sun's JVM.

Thanks for the confirmation, have made the change to the init script and adjusted the dependencies -- should build with the Sun JDK as well
