Thanks for checking on all this, Don, and you are absolutely correct!
Gav, it seems what we should install  on the new 14.04 systems is this:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libhamcrest1.2-java

This should work with the default junit 4.11. We do not want or need the
hamcrest-python.

Unless something's changed significantly in the junit tests (and I have
not researched this), this should work for us. We used junit 4.11 for
testing on AOO 4.1.1.
