hi,

as per subject, unoconv-0.4-4 seems to be unnecessary marked as dependent upon java-runtime; in /var/abs/extra/unoconv/PKGBUILD I read the following:

pkgname=unoconv
pkgver=0.4
pkgrel=4
pkgdesc="Libreoffice-based document converter"
depends=('python2' 'java-runtime' 'libreoffice-common')

can we remove such a dependency?
This task depends upon

I think that the dependency can be dropped completely, or at least be done optional.
Testing unoconv both from inside gnome-documents, as well as using it in the command line to convert a doc to pdf works fine without any java environment installed.
