Hi SS, Looks like you're the one with the right experience for this issue. I understand what you are saying about lib and bin. Hmm, there isn't anything magic about those names to us, but apparently there is to Debian (and perhaps other *nixes). Why don't we just rename them to something else (in the debian repository version) that is less loaded with meaning. Perhaps jars for lib and scripts for bin?
