2008-10-30 15:35:26 Thierry Carrez tomcat6: statusexplanation The problem is not a pre-depend one but rather a circular dependency in openjdk-6 (bug 291123) and sun-java6 (bug 291128). Those circular dependencies are arbitrarily broken at some point and may result in Tomcat trying to start while the JRE is not yet available...

Those circular dependencies are arbitrarily broken at some point and may result in Tomcat trying to start while the JRE is not yet available... I don't agree, the tomcat6 tries to use java in the postinst, before the -jre-headless package is configured. jvm.cfg is a config file in openjdk-6-jre-headless, and this is only available after configuration.

2009-03-20 12:54:31 Thierry Carrez commons-daemon: statusexplanation So it can't be fixed by just working around it in commons-daemon. We need the JRE to be fully installed before it's put in use. Solutions left include: 1- PreDepend 2- Fix apt 3- Make default-jre-headless depend on both openjdk6-lib and openjdk6-jre-headless Reopening tasks for apt and java-common, since I'm still unsure why (3) isn't the easiest solution.
