Bug#853750: hdfview: HDF5 files appear empty

[Chris Billington]

A further update, the Arch Linux AUR package is now building HDFView 3.1
successfully. I'm using it on Arch and it works. If Debian wants to
replicate this for their package, see the build script here:
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=hdfview

The AUR package patches HDFview's build.xml file to unbundle java from the
resulting package and to remove what looks like a workaround for incorrect
library filenames that is not relevant on Arch. This may or may not be
identical on Debian, but may be a useful starting point for anyone wanting
to solve this bug.
