Tuxguitar 1.5 is now built with Maven and comes with build scripts for Linux on amd64 (x86_64), i386 (x86) and armv7hl. The differences between the build scripts for amd64 and i386 are minor, and for many other architectures supported by Debian there are no build scripts at all. So my idea was to use the upstream build scripts for amd64 for all architectures and modify/patch them so that they hopefully work on all architectures supported by Debian. This is the reason why i removed all non-amd64 build scripts from the Debian sources (among other things). But maybe this is not the right way, i don't know. Right now i only have amd64 hardware available, so i can't build on other architectures (cross-compile maybe, but that doesn't sound trivial).

I thought ${maven:CompileDepends} in debian/control handles this build dependencies, but somehow it did not work. I added some more dependencies to the Build-Depends, so hopefully they are complete now.
