Can I remove the sun-java5-bin?

[dtzxdtzx1]

Hi,

I am considering to remove sun-java5-bin from my remastered Cd. Do I have to have Java?

Thanks

Doing the simulated removal

apt-get -s remove sun-java5-bin
will tell you what other packages depend on it and would therefore also be removed.

Usually you don't. Some web pages needs java but not too many. I have removed java and have not longed for it.

If you need some more space consider removing also nessus and wireshark. If you have never used them, propably you never need them.
