reopen 661465

these should be dependencies again. I don't see any fixes/validations that made
things fail gracefully, when the required libraries are not present.

maybe it's too late for wheezy, but I'll change this soon after again, and
fixing it for 7u7 in experimental.

 - split out a -jdk-headless package
 - modify update-java-alternatives to take care of the
   new -jdk-headless package.
