        Looks good mate - one question though: How can a startup script for a
        pre-packaged application (or alternatively one of the pre-packaged
        recognition scripts) find out which registry file it should read when
        more than one debianised jvm package is installed ? Do you propose
        a symlink somewhere to the active registry file ?

        Cheers,

        Marcus
