Currently Olivier and I are working on the new version of IGV. I took
over the part of your patch with the missing classes[1] (thanks for the
hint). I hope there will be a solution not to force a certain Java
version but the build seems to be tricky at the moment (see comments
from Olivier in d/changelog).
Kind regards
Andreas.
PS: In general it is the best idea to fire up reportbug and report this
kind of issues in the Debian BTS.
Disclaimer: There are Debian maintainers who do not like this but for
the Debian Med team that's perfectly fine.
