I suspected that, but I really don’t want to get into Java packaging,
especially not in such a hairy case.

I’d suggest jdownloader-installer, but I don’t have a strong opinion for
renaming the package in the first place — I just think it would be a
good idea in order to keep the name jdownloader for “proper” packages
later and make it clear to users what they are getting when they are
installing jdownloader.
