Hi Jakub,

There are times in the past when tuxguitar explicitly depended on
libswt-gtk-3.5-jar, so it seems odd to say that tuxguitar won't work
with it.  What seems to be the case is that tuxguitar won't work when
both -3.5 and -3 packages are install.

Could it be due to the version of libswt-gtk-3-java that was used when
the tuxguitar binary was built?  (That is, should it be a versioned
dependency on libswt-gtk-3-java?)  Also, I'm able to install both
libswt-gtk-3.5-java and libswt-3-gtk-java in a clean chroot and still
run tuxguitar without a problem.  In any event, I'm not trying to
contradict your assertion; merely understand it.

Cheers,
tony
