This is bad and should not be a reason to remove a package. The 
autoremoval is meant to get rid of packages where there is a lack of 
interest in fixing.

While I see your upload to mentors on the bug log, the package has since 
been recycled from mentors.d.n. Additionally, the referenced git 
repository appears to not have been updated beyond what is in unstable 
in debian/changelog. At this time, attempting to sponsor your changes is 
not actionable.

If you are still interested in the package, please provide the proposed 
changes once more. libgrok2j presently has four RC bugs. Two of them are 
about missing dependencies and are trivially fixable if the two FTBFS 
bugs get resolved. The armhf one has a patch at least. That leaves the 
CMake one. All in all, this does not look insurmountable to me.
