Many, many thanks for all your help (and to Andreas for doing the Debian Med uploads as well). It is building successfully now. Just one more question: I'm also maintaining mhap in jessie-backports and it sounds like there will be trouble to build it on jessie if the maven artifacts are not present there. I can bring jaligner and libssw-java to jessie-backports. Does it make sense to backport libfastutil-java for this reason, or is there a workaround that can be done from within the mhap package for the backport?
