Bug#922965: Bug#923220: DFSG compliance concerns



Hi,

it is correct that the package just builds a .deb file which contains
full functional Arduino IDE. Simple and clean.

What about the java-package and DFSG? It is very similar to my package
and also does not build a .deb from source but is contained in Debian.

Regards,
Philipp
