No, you don't get a pony.

such?

No.

Again, how does such a openjdk-6-jdk-headless package look like?

openjdk-6-jdk should depend on openjdk-6-jre-headless too

Status in “openjdk-6” source package in Ubuntu: Triaged

Bug description:
Binary package hint: openjdk-6-jdk

OpenJDK depends on:

Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3), libx11-6, openjdk-6-jre (>= 6b11-2ubuntu2), zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-1)

But it could and should depend on openjdk-6-jre OR openjdk-6-jre-headless. I don't need any of the bloated X references on a headless installation.
I would like to see this fixed.
