Hello,

(Adding Sunil who did most of the packaging work for libjxmpp-java.)

libjxmpp-java was packaged as a dependency of jitsi-videobridge.
Specifically for Jitsi we need the -core, -jid, and -util-cache modules.

It looks like libidn is only used for jxmpp-stringprep-libidn module.
Possibly we can disable building this module.

Regards,
James
