I have checked your package and have some remark to the rules file which
might be based on my vague knowledge about Java packaging. So if this
is a usual thing to do my concern might be void. I have seen that you
are Build-Depending from cdbs and you do
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/buildvars.mk
and the remaining code in debian/rules is pure dh stuff with override_*
targets. I doubt that this mix of build systems is a good idea and I
wonder whether your changelog entry
* Moved to using the basic javahelper builder
is connected to a switch to a short debhelper notation and the cdbs
code is just a useless remaining which should rather be removed.
As a further remark I would like to point out that latest Debian stable
release contains debhelper 8 and in the teams I'm working for we now
use debhelper (>=8) and debian/compat contains 8.
In addition Standards-Version should be probably bumped to 3.9.2.
I just to make sure that the way your package is builded is in line with
the Debian Java policy. If yes, I will sponsor the package as it is.
Kind regards
Andreas.
