[Bug 296414] java/openjdk25: flavor headless doesn't get used

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=296414

--- Comment #6 from Harald Eilertsen <haraldei@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Robert William Vesterman from comment #4)
> So, am I understanding correctly that the reason that all of these ports are asking for the headless version is that none of them are specifically pinned to it?

That's my understanding as well.

From what I understand from other discussions around the topic, it should be
possible to depend on a specific library (.so) instead of just the package/port
the library is in. In this case a port could depend on libawt_headless.so if it
does not need X support, or libawt_xawt.so if it does.

I don't know the finer details of the ports system well enough yet to know how
to combine this with JDK version constraints. (Or indeed if this is a feasible
solution to the problem.)
