CDK has several new dependencies, which have not yet been packaged. This makes
it complicated. CDK needs a maintainer familiar with Java and willing to
package and maintain its dependencies. Further the CDK upstream usually
includes every dependency in its source tarballs, which means repackaging.

I still have access to the upstream VCS and I'm willing to support every
packager. But I won't package the necessary dependencies and without them
CDK will stay outdated.
