Alas collections4 is not a drop in replacement for collections15. I've
bundled collections15 as a dquilt patch in my packaging of JUNG. I tried
some find and replace tricks based off of
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-collections/release_4_0.html but
got in over my head as I haven't been programming in Java for several years
now.

Patches that complete the transition to collections4 are more than welcome:

Vcs-Git: git://anonscm.debian.org/debian-med/libjung-java.git
