[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#927329: Update Arduino from 1.8.2 to 1.8.9

[Rock Storm]

Hi all,

@Kashif, thanks for volunteering, please let us know if you succeed on
packaging it from scratch. IIRC on our last attempt we got stuck
packaging some of the java dependencies such as 'mrbean', some info on
this bug report [1]. Project is now hosted on Salsa [2].

@Brian, thank you for insisting on this topic. We probably need someone
to push us a little bit to get this done. I sincerely believe Arduino
being in Debian is a must. As I said, I'll work on it as soon as I can.

Regards,
