Fundamentally the libtablelayout-java package in Debian is a fork of the
project named "tablelayout". This fork uses its own namespace to comply
with the tablelayout license. Users are free to modify the package as
long as they do no revert to the upstream namespace, and this modified
package can be a drop-in replacement in the Debian context (i.e. Debian
packages depending on libtablelayout-java will keep working).
