Bug#640748: icedtea-plugin: obsolete (and unneeded?) dependency on

 

Package: icedtea-plugin
Version: 1.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #636514

Hi everyone,

this is getting a bit ridiculous. icedtea-web does not build anymore
in unstable, it prevents updating java.

Is there any statement from the maintainer whether he is planning to
fix that in foreseeable future, or should a NMU prepared or the
package taken over by someone else (java team?).

	consider how lucky you are that it won't be troubling you much
