Bug#574029: javahelper: jh_manifest fails even without manifest

[Eric Lavarde]

Package: javahelper
Version: 0.30
Severity: important


Hello,

even without having any manifest defined (jh_manifest is only called
through CDBS), I get the following error:

jh_manifest -plibknopflerfish-osgi-framework-java

i.e. I can't use javahelper...
