Source: libskinlf-java
Version: 6.7
Severity: normal
User: debian-java at lists.debian.org
Usertags: default-java9

This package fails to build with default-jdk pointing to openjdk-9-jdk.
Please fix it, so that we can start the transition to Java 9.
The wiki has some common problems and their solutions:

window.getPeer() is gone. There doesn't seem to be an easy work around
in this case. Upstream is 4+ years idle.

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8134422

The code is in a class named "Win32..", maybe it can just be deleted
for Debian?

Build log:
