That could be a very hard task, because you have to look if there aren't any
dependencies on some of these packages. I would suggest to drop the whole
gcj packages, but even it's unmaintained now by upstream, there are a few
programs depending on it (like a few packages of ant i think)
But writing a policy about the openjdk would be the right thing now because
we will integrate it, it's also in mandriva but without a policy or Remy
didn't find one for that.
