Thats not possible. libswt-gtk-3.1-java is packaged in a really weird
way and doesnt follow the Debian Java Policy. And it has problems with
putting arch dependant SWT jar into /usr/share/java. This does not work.
I have a patch ready locally to make azureus use libswt3.1-gtk-java
instead of libswt-gtk-3.1-java. I will submit it to the azureus
maintainer soon when the next eclipse upload is in unstable.


Cheers,
Michael
