Hello maintainer,
While performing an archive wide checkbashisms (from the 'devscripts'
package) check I've found your package containing a /bin/sh script making
use of a bashism.
checkbashisms' output:
>possible bashism in ./usr/share/netbeans/platform13/lib/nbexec line 183
>(should be >word 2>&1):

Not using bash (or a Debian Policy conformant shell interpreter which
doesn't provide such an extra feature) as /bin/sh is likely to lead to
errors or unexpected behaviours.
You can find hints about how to fix bashisms at:
