Public bug reported:
This affects Trusty and possibly others.. I hit it whilst backporting
JavaFX (openjfx).
The package installs an incorrect symbolic link when trying to alias the
alternative hyphen and dot-separated names, causing packages looking for
"/usr/share/java/werken.xpath.jar" to fail to build.
$ ls -l /usr/share/java/werken*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 76418 Jan 27 2012 /usr/share/java/werken-xpath-0.9.4.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Jan 27 2012 /usr/share/java/werken-xpath.jar ->
werken-xpath-0.9.4.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Jan 27 2012 /usr/share/java/werken.xpath.jar ->
werken.xpath-0.9.4.jar
The manual work-around is to fix the link:
$ sudo ln -fs /usr/share/java/werken-xpath-0.9.4.jar
/usr/share/java/werken.xpath.jar
$ ls -l /usr/share/java/werken*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 76418 Jan 27 2012 /usr/share/java/werken-xpath-0.9.4.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Jan 27 2012 /usr/share/java/werken-xpath.jar ->
werken-xpath-0.9.4.jar
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 May 15 00:42 /usr/share/java/werken.xpath.jar ->
/usr/share/java/werken-xpath-0.9.4.jar
