[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#625562: figtree: fails to start

[Pvt. Pyle]

Package: figtree
Version: 1.3.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

I installed figtree from debian and it fails to start with the following
message (se below). I downloaded figtree from author's web site (same release,
1.3.1) and it works, thus I think some problem during its packaging took place.
I opened /usr/bin/figtree using nano and it looks like a binary file or
something, far from original figtree.jar (java). It can be seen some references
to java classes but it is an absolute rigmarole nevertheless.

May the force be with you.

Output (translation in parentheses):
