The users list might tell me how someone else managed to work around
certain difficulties but no one there would be able to help eliminate
them or know whether that work-around is expected to be reliable through
updates or just happened to work for the person who tried it. And
particularly in the case of jpackage I don't see the point. Is it
impossible to make the parts you have in common identical or change the
names so you have nothing in common?
