Description:
Installing jGnash without an existing Java environment installs OpenJDK by default. post_install() says following:

jGnash is known to not work properly with the OpenJDK 6 Java environment.
Until upstream bugs are fixed, you should install the jre package to use jGnash.

OpenJDK shouldn't install with jGnash if it doesn't work with it. Until upstream is fixed set jre as dependency.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
jgnash 1.12.0-1 from [community]

* config and/or log files etc.
From pacman: http://pastebin.com/TRmE9YVw


Steps to reproduce:
1. Don't have any java runtime installed
2. pacman -S jgnash
This task depends upon

Small side note about 'signature not available', this can be ignored according this http://www.pubbs.net/archlinux/200907/60369/

I just noticed this, is there any reason why jgnash is 1.12.0 while upstream is already at 2.3.5 ?

From their website: "The older 1.x series of jGnash will run on systems that support a minimum of Java 1.4.0."

I created jgnash 2.3.5 and also changed the depends to jre.

note: I didn't like using the prebuilt jars but that's how the old one did it, source only exists in svn.
