It would be nice the m-d-h made more intelligent decisioning on whether to install to /usr/share/java or not. For example, if the binary package name that m-d-h is targetting is named libXXX-java, it would make sense to automatically install to /usr/share/java. If the package is not a libXXX-java package then it a) does not want to install to usj or b) has to do it explicitly with - --java-lib. Lintian checks that libXXX-java packages install jar files to /usr/share/java - I don't think mdh should be breaking that rule! I'd be happy to work up a patch to implement this functionality (feel it might be a better spend of time rather than continually finding packages which don't use --java-lib). Thoughts?
