I wonder the reason of these font choices for PDF.

 texlive-lang-japanese uses IPA produced fonts.
 texlive-lang-chinese uses fonts-arphic-* fonts.

Why build with these?  I kept these but added these new dependencies.

Maybe ... I should disable BUILDOPT:= --parallel in debian/rules to see
easily readable log.
