Package: javahelper
Version: 0.51
Severity: serious

After the new upload, a lintian test case fails with:

"""
jh_build --javacopts='-target 1.7' --javacopts='-source 1.7'
find src -name *.java -and -type f -print0 | xargs -0 /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/bin/javac -g -cp :debian/_jh_build.testa -d debian/_jh_build.testa -target 1.7 -source 1.7
find src -name *.java -and -type f -print0 | xargs -0 /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/bin/javadoc -classpath :debian/_jh_build.testa -d debian/_jh_build.javadoc/api -quiet -locale en_US -notimestamp -source 1.5
javadoc: error - option -locale must be first on the command line.
<listing of javadoc usage/options>
"""

This is an unforunate regression that is very likely to break existing
packages that relies on jh_build to produce javadoc.

Thanks,
