+This is NOT a 'clean' Debian package.
+
+The DH build process with gradle passes "--offline" to Gradle and thus
+does not work with the libeufin build system.
+
+Invoking the libeufin build system directly without the DH-magic
+results in some failures to create a lock file in /root/ by Gradle.
+
+Java builds are a mess.
+
+
+So to still generate a 'nice' Debian package, you
+must run:
+
+$ ./gradlew dist
+$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -uc -us
+
+Basically, we take the 'binary' zip file generated by the first
+command as the "source" for dpkg.  Yuckkee!
