I think you forgot to extract the upstream tarball in the current directory.

To build with Java 8 you have to change the JAVA_HOME variable. It's
defined in every debian/rules file and usually points to
/usr/lib/jvm/default-java. update-java-alternatives doesn't change the
VM linked to this path, you have to change debian/rules or install a
modified version of default-jdk:
