For building lwgl3 we would need jcommander, which is in Debian, and
kotlin, a programming language and compiler.

https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin

This one seems to be the blocker because kotlin build-depends on
components of IntelliJ IDEA and all in all that's a lot of stuff for a
mere library. But perhaps I am missing something and it is much simpler...
