After installing python-lucene importing the module lucene
into a python interpreter fails with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/lucene/__init__.py", line 2, in 
<module>
    import os, _lucene
ImportError: libjava.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

The vast majority of import failures is attributed to missing dependencies.
Often times that manifests as an ImportError or ModuleNotFoundError.
Typically, dependencies should be inserted by dh-python via ${python:Depends}
or ${python3:Depends}. Thus a missing dependency can be caused by incomplete
install_requires in setup.py. Sometimes a missing dependency of a dependency
is the cause, in such cases this bug should be reassigned.
