Htsjdk seems to be a moving target regarding changes in need of new
dependencies. I'd say if we can "test" by getting its rdependencies and
thier tests working disabling buildtime tests as long as scalatest might
be packaged (did you contacted debian-java list about this) might be an
acceptable solution in the short run.
