I would have kept something like that but using init-system-helpers instead
of systemd. It is not unheard of for people to not install recommends. However,
init-system-helpers is likely to be installed on the target system already
(since everything that comes with a systemd unit pulls it). So, it's a bit
nitpicking.
About Java, you can change the dependency to:
```
default-jre-headless (>= 1:1.8) | java8-runtime-headless | java8-runtime
```
This would enable people to use Oracle JRE instead. Most packages for
non-OpenJDK JRE are providing `java8-runtime-headless` or `java8-runtime`. For
JDK, this would be:
```
default-jdk-headless (>= 1:1.8) | java8-sdk | java8-jdk
```
The normal virtual package is `java8-sdk` but some unofficial packages are
using `java8-jdk` instead.
