This package fails to build with default-jdk pointing to openjdk-9-jdk.
The wiki has some common problems and their solutions:
https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Java9Pitfalls

The problem would probably be easy to fix, however the package does not
appear to have had any love at all in 7+ years.


Last upstream commit was around 14 years ago. Last comment on a ticket
was around 7 years ago; the ticket wasn't resolved. Last release was 14
years ago.

I cannot find any rdeps, and the package appears to be a library. There
is some indication that people might want to use it interactively, i.e.
not as a library. I cannot find any real examples of anything doing
this?

Can we RM it?
