I'm just a pdfsam (newbie) user, but I cannot reproduce this in spite
of being using the same JVM as yours. pdfsam-console starts without
complaining about a missing .jar (even though I've been thus far
totally unable to make it doing something useful, the total lack of
documentation does not help in that respect ...).

The content of my pdfsam's lib dir is as follows:

zack at usha:~$ ls /usr/share/pdfsam/lib/
dom4j.jar        itext.jar  log4j-1.2.jar  pdfsam-console-2.0.0e.jar pdfsam-langpack.jar
emp4j-1.0.1.jar  jaxen.jar  looks.jar      pdfsam-jcmdline-1.0.3.jar

Note that the CLASSPATH output by pdfsam-console (as debug message?)
here mentions the 2.0.0e.jar file and not the 2.0.1e.jar you mention
in your bug report.

Cheers.
