This might be a hint.  This library will be provided in Debian by the
package libsequence-library-java which has version  1.0.2 currently.
I'll try to make an upgrade happen and will report in case this is not

I attached the full build log of the package which should answer these
questions.

Debian command uscan is parsing

    http://svnkit.com/download.php

and fetched it from there.

I do not think so.

Kind regards
