Tomcat actually needs a JDK and not a JRE.  I believe the addition of
the libjessie-java dependency is part of moving Tomcat 4 to main;
Wolfgang and Arnaud can best answer that.  Since the Sun JRE/JDK is
never an asuumption for anything moved to main, dependencies will seldom
reflect a Sun-centric perspective.
