Public bug reported:

open-jdk-6-jre-headless does not depend on libjpeg62.
If libjpeg62 is not installed, using any jpeg function in the openjdk-6-jre-headless makes the JVM crash.
Steps to reproduce:
1) install a Ubuntu 8.10 JeOS server on VMWare Player
2) sudo aptitude install tomcat6
3) install JIRA (from Atlassian http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/JIRADownloadCenter.jspa) as WAR/EAR file on tomcat6 
4) create a bug in JIRA and attach a JPEG file to it
=> openjdk 6 JRE JVM crashes

Installing libjpeg62 fixes the crash.

The issue seem related to an incomplete fix in bug 195458:
