[Bug 307272] [NEW] jpackage-utils doesn't work with sun-java6

[witr-keyword-launchpad.135705 at rwwa.com]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: jpackage-utils

For example, using find-jar reports:

$ find-jar ant
/usr/bin/find-jar: error: JVM_LIBDIR /usr/lib/jvm-exports/java-6-sun does not exist or is not a directory

Analysis:

jpackage-utils creates certain directories based on versions of the JVM,
but doesn't include ones for version 6.  For example:

/usr/lib/jni-1.5.0
/usr/share/java-1.5.0

Creating these directories (and the one in the error message above)
seems to fix the problem.

Details:
