because you won't answer all the questions why printing and pc/sc isn't
working out of the box, if the recommends are not installed.

fine, if you can come up with a solution which prints a message before
the traceback that some packages need to be installed when they are
used. awaiting your patch then.

Title:
  openjdk-7-jre-headless depends on undesirable packages

Status in “openjdk-7” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  hi-

  i see that both libcups2 and libpcsclite1 are marked as dependencies.
  i'm using openjdk-7-jre-headless on a computer that is not involved in
  any way with printing or cups, nor with pc/sc or any smart card
  services, and would not to not be forced to install these packages.

  thanks
  -ben
