+A note for Debian maintainers:
+
+The upstream source of HEALPix for Java is distributed in a monolithic
+tarball that also includes the C, C++, Fortran, IDL, and Python language
+variants. The debian/watch file for this package strips out the unrelated
+source directories from the upstream tarball.
+
+Due to the extreme simplicity of this package, I opted to use javahelper
+instead of the upstream-provided build.xml Ant file.
