Dear Maintainer,

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following:

  * d/rules: Build class files with source/target = 1.4 to ensure backwards
    compatibility (LP: #999749).

By default, this package aligns source/target to the version of Java being
used to compile the code - in Ubuntu default java has switch to OpenJDK7
which means that this package generates classes which are not compatible
with earlier versions of Java

Thanks for considering the patch.
