When last we spoke (on the -apps list), it was suggested that the
dependencies should remain correct for the curr: version, and people
installing the test: version should manually install the required dependencies.
If it would help, I could upload a 4.7.2-2 later tonight which restores java
and has the original 4.5.3-3 dependencies?
