Because if I enable it I get the following:

[...]
test:

BUILD FAILED
/home/andrea/devel/prg/metadata-extractor/build.xml:48: Problem:
failed to create task or type junit
Cause: the class
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.junit.JUnitTask was not found.
       This looks like one of Ant's optional components.
Action: Check that the appropriate optional JAR exists in
       -/usr/share/ant/lib
       -/home/andrea/.ant/lib
       -a directory added on the command line with the -lib argument

Do not panic, this is a common problem.
The commonest cause is a missing JAR.

This is not a bug; it is a configuration problem


BTW, this is what Debian does too. I'm not a Java boy and I do not know how to
work this out.

> *Please consider including %{name}.jar symlinks to %{name}-%{version}.jar  

I'm inexperienced, can you please tell me what are the pro's of doing this? Is
this something mandatory? Or is this something suggested but strongly advised?
I haven't seen anything about this in the guidelines. 

Thanks for your comments!
