Basically yes, but IMHO this should be the decision of the local admin and not of the package maintainer. How could he know ig his package contains "standard" jars? This means that no package should automatically put jars or symlinks there. This would be /etc/java/default-classpath/ inmy proposal.
No, if a "local admin" has to manually maintain a file for the default classpath
then you no longer have a default classpath. You do not ask a "local admin" to manually maintain /etc/ld.so.onf or /usr/include. That is *our* job.
