In this case it wouldnt have helped. The old jsch package contained a file debian/libsch-java.links with a hardcoded link. I removed that file, tested package and all worked. Then I did an svn up (which made the file reappear), did the final build and uploaded. I agree that a helper like dh_installjar would be really nice.
