I think this is a Debian Java toolchain issue and we should not fix this
at the package level. The latest OpenJDK 11 release introduced a change
that broke javadoc generation. We should discuss this on
debian-j...@lists.debian.org. Tony Mancill already provided some hints
for Maven based packages. [1] Javahelper based packaged could be
salvaged as well. Please do not try to fix this individually but engage
in a general solution.
