You have to supply a _new_ file name as the first argument, since this
is what the diverted file will be renamed to, e.g.
$ sudo dpkg-divert --add --rename --divert --local \
/usr/share/java/vncviewer-3.3.2.jar.distrib \
/usr/share/java/vncviewer-3.3.3r2.jar
Then you can copy/symlink/rename your
/usr/share/java/vncviewer-4.1-local.jar to vncviewer-3.3.3r2.jar.
