Package: default-jre
Version: 2:1.9-62
Severity: important

default-jre 2:1.9-62 still has:

  Recommends: default-java-plugin

but default-java-plugin is no longer built.

Because of that, aptitude refuses to upgrade default-jre without
a manual intervention:

The following packages depend on version 2:1.8-59 of default-jre, and will be  ▒
broken if it is upgraded.                                                      ▒
                                                                               ▒
  * default-java-plugin (held/unchanged, 2:1.8-59) depends on default-jre (=   ▒
    2:1.8-59)                                                                  ▒

(I suppose that aptitude doesn't try to remove the automatically
installed default-java-plugin package because it would break a
Recommends, as signaled by the second resolution choice.)
