After following these hints and adding CLASSPATH to those wrappers that
obviosely needed it I was able to fire up all those executables and
assumed that I now dealt with the issue.  However, it comes harder when
trying beast-mcmc on any of the included example.

I would be more than happy if anybody would download the packages from

   http://people.debian.org/~tille/packages/beast-mcmc-help-wanted/

and try for instance

 $ beast-mcmc /usr/share/doc/beast-mcmc/examples/calibrations/constrainedTaxaTest1.xm

or any other example.  It always fails with the same error.  And yes, I
verified that /usr/share/java/jebl.jar contains the class in question
and I even tried the jebl.jar which is shipped with upstream tarball (it
ships with this lib included but an older version).  I also tried to
set CLASSPATH explicitely - no success with all trials.

This program is really a beast. :-(

Any help would be highly welcome.

Kind regards

         Andreas.
