The problem is a missing build dependency on libservlet3.1-java

libservlet3.1-java).


I haven't checked whether a runtime dependency on libservlet3.1-java is 
also missing.

Thanks Adrian, I'll fix it upstream,
unfortunately the maintainer is not responsive and i2p in Debian is 1 year and 
4 releases behind already.

Bug#986474: symlink

[zzz]

Thanks for the report. It's actually not serious, as almost no user needs a 
compiler at runtime.
The only users would be of some i2p plugin we don't know about.

We used to depend on libtomcat8 which depended on libecj-java,
but we switched to libtomcat9 which depends on libeclipse-jdt-core-java, that's 
how it broke.
I assume that will work as well. I'll fix the link in our next release.
