Package: classpath
Maintainer: John Leuner <address@hidden>
Version: 0.05-1

I'cc John Leuner but will contact him this week-end or next week to
explain my problem and trying to give him some patches to have
separated jta and jdbc-stdext jar's.

It'll be hard because the classpath's jar are not installed in the
same location as the other java libraries.

Thank you for your help, I think it's a really good idea! I am very
happy with this solution, it'll avoid non-free code into debian.
