I went a bit further into the build system of netlib-java and found out
that build.xml is lacking a compile target.  I added this in my last
commit[2] and need to admit that I have no idea why the package has ever
build before.

Unfortunately the build now leaves me with some errors:

...

BUILD FAILED
/build/netlib-java-0.9.3/build.xml:30: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.

Total time: 1 second
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:11: override_dh_auto_build] Error 1


Any hint how to get rid of these?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
