Bug#599130: javahelper: Support for renaming symlinks in jh_linkjars

[Morten Sørensen]

Package: javahelper
Version: 0.32
Severity: wishlist

This feature could be useful for when a newer version of some library is used
instead of the version distributed with the library or program. In some cases
it might even remove patches needed to solve this case.

Possible syntax for debian/linkjars could then be:

<target> [<specific jar> [<symlink name>]]

Support for creating symlink for only a single jar will probably also have to
be added.
