Title:
  FTBFS in questing: setup.cfg command 'build_java' has no such option
  'minimum-java-release'

Status in Apport:
  Fix Released
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Apport 2.32.0-0ubuntu5 FTBFS on questing due to an error in a custom
  setuptools command:

  ```
  error: error in setup.cfg: command 'build_java' has no such option 'minimum-java-release'
  E: pybuild pybuild:389: build: plugin distutils failed with: exit code=1: /usr/bin/python3 setup.py build 
  dh_auto_build: error: pybuild --build -i python{version} -p 3.13 returned exit code 13
  make: *** [debian/rules:4: binary] Error 25
  dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2
  debuild: fatal error at line 1185:
  dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -ui failed
  ```

  I tried to sidestep this by commenting out the relevant option in
  setup.cfg:

  ```
   [build_java_subdir]
  -minimum-java-release=8
  +# minimum-java-release=8
  ```

  and hardcoding the release in setuptools_apport/java.py:

  ```
       def initialize_options(self) -> None:
           """Set or (reset) all options/attributes/caches to their default values"""
  -        self.minimum_java_release = "7"
  +        self.minimum_java_release = "8"
  ```

  and I still got the following error:

  ```
  make[1]: Entering directory '/home/octavio/apport-2.32.0'
  tests/run-linters --errors-only
  Running mypy...
  Success: no issues found in 98 source files

  dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess returned exit status 2

  ```

  Let me know if I can provide further information.

  Thanks!
