The problem is not building jmol - the problem is packaging the additional requirements since the last version that is in Debian. I believe the main issue was jmolspec or something (sorry I am on crappy internet right now and cannot check), which was a mess to package by itself. One alternative (if sagemath does not require it) would be to come up with a way to hack out that additional feature, if that is possible. I am not to keen on moving jmol packaging over to the java team, as e.g. the cdk package is lingering along there as well. I am more than happy to add people who are interested in helping with jmol packaging to the debichem team, though.
