Status in “openjdk-6” source package in Ubuntu: Fix Released

Bug description:
On current intrepid, when installing openjdk-6-jre-headless on a server platform, all the X libraries generally required for the full openjdk-6-jre get installed as well. It even installs more than what the openjdk-6-jre package would.

This somewhat defeats the purpose of having a -headless package.

Reproduce : on a minimal server install :
$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre-headless
