Bug#532640: Dependancy on ant

[أحمد]

Package: velocity
Version: 1.4-5

Hello,

  Does the velocity package need to Depend on ant ?

  There are packages (such as zekr) that depend on velocity, just for 
  its /usr/share/java/velocity.jar. Yet since velocity *Depends* on ant, 
  which in turn Recommends default-jdk, hence to install a user app 
  (such as zekr), apt-get will pull an un-needed overhead which is the 
  JDK & ant.

  Please consider demoting the dependancy on ant to Suggests.

  Thanks...
