I could link most of the binary JARs that are included in the source
package, to existing JARs in Debian packages. But there are 2 causing
problems:

1. is a small GUI library that the upstream author releases by himself
in a separate upstream. But it is not really compilable and there is no
hint which exact version the author compiled and included into the
source.tar.gz . That appears to be the reason, why it is in there (it is
kinda messy).

2. is a SWF creation library, which I found not to be open source. The
package could also be created without this library and some patches to
the source, to deactivate thew SWF export. But that is to complicated
for me, since the source code is a bit confusing.


I'm discontinuing my work on this package, since the upstream is in poor 
quality. It might be senseful to pick this up in future again.

The PPA I created is working and can be used to install and use the
software. After the review the package is also already in a good quality
(except the existing JARs in the source). All my work is in the linked
BZR branch, so in easily be continued.
