Hi,

There have been a few discussions about this in the past but no action.
With feature freeze approaching for F21, I think this is a good time to
address this.

I will be orphaning java-1.5.0-gcj in Fedora on April 8th. If anyone
wants to take over, please let me know. Please do keep in mind though
that we really should just remove GCJ (despite the effect it will have
on pdftk) as preferred by one of the primary authors of it (Andrew
Haley):
