Thanks. I did it in a fairly simple (hacky) way and have pushed to
'sudip/jni' branch for you to have a look first.
It is now building 'libequinox-executable-jni_4.17-2_amd64.deb' and
'libequinox-executable-jni-dbgsym_4.17-2_amd64.deb' for this change.

Can you please have a look at the branch when you get some time..
