This was indeed the second part of my proposal - have all debian JVMs include
/usr/lib/jni in their default library search path, so users don't need to set
anything manually.
> But if put JNI libraries into /usr/lib, it's easy.
Note that some (prominent) recent non-debian JVMs don't even include /usr/lib
in the default search path (see #160765), so /usr/lib is no longer an easy
solution. This was in fact part of my motivation to have the JNI directory
standardised, so we can then make all debian JVMs put this directory in their
default path, and at least have *our* JNI work out of the box.
If you're using a non-debian JVM, it's a simple matter to find which directory
to add to java.library.path (look in java policy or just see where a package
installs it files), just like it's a simple matter to find which jars to add
to $CLASSPATH (look in java policy or just see where a package installs its
files).
