Sure, but it's common practice in Debian to separately package libraries
and programs. For instance, fop notably depends on X libraries, which
libfop-java wouldn't, and that can be a noticeable difference for
application servers which would want to make use of fop.

Sure. I'm just suggesting to split the current fop binary into fop and
libfop-java.
