I think all the remaining problems hit either:
 * -Dant.build.javac.source: https://bugs.debian.org/873969 , or
 * https://bugs.debian.org/873977

But, who knows what we'll find with those fixed.

Done. It was only about 30.

I found out that the reason why -Dlinks is ignored is that maven's
javadoc plugin will ignore the links option in offline mode.  It's own
documentation states "only used if isOffline is set to false" [1].

It seems that the right option is to set offlineLinks [2].  In the
pom.xml file, this would be:

  

  file:///usr/share/doc/default-jdk-doc/api/
  file:///usr/share/doc/default-jdk-doc/api/

  

but I don't know how I would set this on a properties file.  All the
documentation says is that the user property is named offlineLinks.
Could anyone with actual maven experience give me a hand?

That's the idea: pbuilder's output is a logfile, NOT just
the terminal, so it SHOULD NOT show the colours.
