[DebianGIS-dev] Bug#521125: /usr/bin/josm wrapper doesn't respect 'java' alternative

Package: josm
Version: 0.0.0.20080713-1
Severity: normal

I note that there seems to be some issues resulting in josm having a
hard dependency on OpenJDK. Regardless of this, the /usr/bin/josm
wrapper script seems to go to extra pains to prevent the user running
JOSM with anything other than OpenJDK.

Please would you add, or indeed replace, an option to use the system
java alternative (which I note is the Debian standard method of handling
this sort of situation). Trying to stop the user making choices is bad
and wrong, and contray to the whole point of this operating system.
