[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#875334: FTBFS with Java 9: javax.xml.bind

[Chris West]

Source: biojava4-live
Version: 4.2.7+dfsg
Severity: normal
User: debian-java at lists.debian.org
Usertags: default-java9

This package fails to build with default-jdk pointing to openjdk-9-jdk.
Please fix it, so that we can start the transition to Java 9.
The wiki has some common problems and their solutions:
https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Java9Pitfalls

javax.xml.bind has been removed from the default classpath. Please see the
section on the wiki for further details, and hopefully eventually a
solution.
