That's interesting. The package does contain the link. What looks bit suspicious is the combination: -rw-r--r-- root/root 1544134 2010-02-23 21:44 ./usr/lib/java/swt-gtk-3.5.1.jar lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2010-02-23 21:45 ./usr/share/java/swt.jar -> swt-gtk-3.5.1.jar lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2010-02-23 21:45 ./usr/share/java/swt-gtk-3.5.1.jar -> ../../lib/java/swt-gtk-3.5.1.jar Maybe there's a race condition when the two symlinks are unpacked? What I don't understand is why the .jar is in /usr/lib/java/ and not in /usr/share/java in the first place. It's put there explicitly by debian/libswt-gtk-3.5-java.install. Installing it to /usr/share/java and adjusting debian/libswt-gtk-3.5-java.links would save one symlink and maybe also fix the bug?
