Bug#875402: RM? FTBFS with Java 9, no upstream support, 1 recommends rdep

Source: icu4j-4.2
Version: 4.2.1.1-5
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,
although it would probably be easy to fix.

The package has been superseded by multiple versions of icu4j, all of
which are still in the archive.

The only rdepend is a Recommends: by liblucene2-java, which I also hope
to RM: https://bugs.debian.org/875401

The package appears to already have been RM'd, I don't really understand
why it came back into the archive: https://bugs.debian.org/657305

Can we RM it again, and hope it stays dead this time?

Cheers,
Chris.
