Thanks for your kind words!

I met several issues with capsule, as the upstream author seems to build 
it against jdk-8, and now in Debian we use openjdk-11.

I am also currently packaging capsule-maven, which seems to be a bit easier.

capsule will be sent into NEW soon, but I think I will wait for it to 
exit the queue before sending capsule-maven, which depends on capsule. 
Or at least, I shall send capsule-maven some days/weeks after sending 
capsule.

All the best,
Pierre
