That is up to the maintainers of libsejda-java. My concern is with the jts package. > I would like to point out that it is rather unlikely that someone will > adopt jts.

Then I'll orphan it, and there'll be an unmaintained package in the in the dependency tree for elasticsearch, h2database, spatial4j & spatial4j-0.4. I'd rather remove the jts package from Debian, but it's not appropriate for me to request the removal of its reverse dependencies for which I'm not the maintainer.
