[Bug 1770809] Re: [bionic SRU] Port libjsyntaxpane-java 0.9.6~r156-7 java9 crash to bionic

[Simon Quigley]

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * Freeplane uses libjsyntaxpane-java for editing groovy and latex content
+  * libjsyntaxpane-java-0.9.6~r156-6 is not compatible with Java9; with
+    Java9, it crashes at runtime when opening the editor(s).
+  * The fix is simple (one patch for java9 fix, one patch for making it
+    build without maven) is simple and well tested on Debian unstable
+    and Debian testing
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Install 'freeplane', add a node with content "\latex $x_2=3$"
+    (without quotes), and edit the node with Alt+Enter. Without the fix
+    (-6), there will be a popup with an exception. With the fix
+    (-6ubuntu1), an editor with syntax highlighting will pop up.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * In theory, the editor could still not work with the new (-6ubuntu1)
+ version (unlikely, because the fix is well-tested). There is no risk
+ since the current version of libjsyntaxpane-java is completely broken.
+ 
+ [Original Description]
+ 
  Please sync libjsyntaxpane-java 0.9.6~r156-7 (universe) from Debian
  unstable (main)
  
  Changelog entries since current bionic version 0.9.6~r156-6:

-   * Fix java 9 problem (ported from https://github.com/nordfalk/jsyntaxpane)
