Hi there,

while this particular bug is relatively easy to fix by adding

override_dh_auto_clean:
	[ ! -f Makefile.common ] || dh_auto_clean

to debian/rules, the build will fail further on with a core dump:

vmjc: JavaClass.cpp:496: j3::JavaObject *j3::Class::doNew(j3::Jnjvm *):
Assertion `(this->isInitializing() ||
classLoader->getCompiler()->isStaticCompiling() || this ==
classLoader->bootstrapLoader->upcalls->newClass) && "Uninitialized class
when allocating."' failed.

Upstream seems to be aware of the issue, saying the build only works
with "a version strictly before the 7u25 (probably the
7u21), sorry!", see

Cheers,
