       For library packages Debian Java policy currently requires that the libraries be installed to
       /usr/share/java in a versioned format and with an unversioned symlink. jh_installlibs will take a jar and
       correctly install it.

       As with debhelper programs, this can either take a jar as a parameter, or read a list of jars from a file
       in the Debian directory. It also follows the -p, -i and -a semantics of debhelper for selecting which
       packages to install the jar to. When operating on a package, jh_installlibs will read the list of library
       jars from debian/package.jlibs or debian/jlibs.

       The jlibs file is a list of jars to install, one per line, and works exactly the same as listing them on
       the command line. Each jar is installed to debian/package/usr/share/java/ in the appropriate versioned
       and unversioned forms.

       If the jars built by upstream already contain the version number, this will be stripped before
       installing. jh_installlibs will also try to strip the upstream version number of any ds or dfsg suffix.
       Other version-mangling options or explicit version numbers can also be provided.

debian/package.jlibs, debian/jlibs
           The jlibs file is a list of jars to install, one per line, and works exactly the same as listing them
           on  the  command  line.  Each  jar  is installed to debian/package/usr/share/java/ in the appropriate
           versioned and unversioned forms.

           Note that unlike most other debhelper commands, jh_installlibs will use debian/jlibs  as  a  fallback
           configuration  file  for  all  packages that it acts on.  Other debhelper commands usually only apply
           this fallback to the "main package".

--no-mangle
           Do not try to sanitize the upstream version number.

       --upstream-version=version
           Use version as the upstream version.  This option implies --no-mangle--version-strip=regex
           Use regex instead of the built-in rules for sanitizing the upstream version number.

           This option is ignored when --no-mangle is passed (or implied by another option).

       Beyond the above, jh_classpath also accepts the shared debhelper options documented in debhelper(7).

debhelper(7)

       This program is a part of javahelper  and  uses  debhelper  as  backend.  There  are  also  tutorials  in
       /usr/share/doc/javahelper.
