thanks for reporting. I believe I have to update the Breaks relationship
in libel-api-java, libjsp-api-java, libservlet-api-java and
libwebsocket-api-java. Probably << 9 will save us from further trouble.
I could also add a Conflicts field to libservlet3.1-java in Stretch but
I don't know if apt will properly resolve the dependencies during the
upgrade. This is something for a buster-pu.

Regards,

Markus
