Bug#363556: missing dependency causes java exeption

Package: fop
Version: 1:0.20.5-8
Priority: minor

FOP requires some X libraries (at least libXp.so) to be present for some
(all?) rendering tasks. They're used by the java.awt package, which
failes with a fuzzy exeption if they're not present:

>Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError at
> org.apache.fop.layout.LineArea.addSpacedWord(LineArea.java:1520)
>	at org.apache.fop.layout.LineArea.addText(LineArea.java:924)
>	at org.apache.fop.fo.FOText.addRealText(FOText.java:278)
>...

At least in a server environment the X libs aren't always present, so
IMHO a dependency to the libxp6 package should be added.

Greets,
