Not really, since they're self-contained. Using apt to install jars seems
like overkill.
Still, most jars are available as lib*-java from the Ubuntu repos. I try
there first, and if I can't find what I want, I just drop the appropriate
jar into /usr/share/java (otoh, I'm getting away from using java anyway).
