AFAICT that package has never been available on kfreebsd:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=libjogl-java&arch=kfreebsd-amd64

I'm currently not sure of the best action to take:

If that package is only needed for qiime to work on Linux, the
dependency could be limited to [linux-any].

Or if that package crucial for qiime to work at all, you can only
request its removal from kfreebsd.  (From unstable - by filing a bug
with ftpmaster).

Or with luck, someone might be able to get libjogl-java built on
kfreebsd.  (I think changes to gluegen2 are needed).


There's a more immediate problem that qiime now FTBFS on kfreebsd-*:

That's the wrong page - that's the debian-ports.org infrastructure.
Architectures for Debian sid are here:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libjogl-java

I'm curious why it talks about 'downloading', it's not really
downloading source code during the build, I hope?

Seems like some porting is needed, maybe not much.  I'm looking into it
right now...

Thanks!
