Both are not java projects in Debian:

hibernate: activates your computer's suspend functionality
 This package provides a way to activate the suspend functionality in
 the kernel.  Currently it supports anything using the /sys/power/state
 interface (including ACPI suspend and the in-kernel software
 suspend), as well as Software Suspend 2 (which is available as a
 separate kernel patch).

sac: Login accounting
 Performs login accounting, just like the ac program but with
 totals, per day and per users.  Also performs average usage
 and hourly profiling. Tons of other options.

If you want those projects to change their name, you have to contact the
authors (not the Debian packager).

hibernate has been packaged first July, 13 2004
sac has been packaged first in Sept, 20 1996.

Cheers,
