[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#894359: Now we have antlr 4.6 - any chance to get 4.7 soon (Was: beast-mcmc2: Cannot find symbol CharStreams.fromString(newick))

[Andreas Tille]

Hi,

when I tried last time we had antlr 4.5.  I now tried with 4.6 but it
seems 4.7 is really needed.  Any chance to get this soon?

Kind regards

        Andreas.
