Bug#933715: jh_linkjars: dpkg -L "debhelper-compat" returned exit code 1

[Markus Koschany]

Package: javahelper
Version: 0.72.9
Severity: serious


jh_linkjars apparently chokes on the new debhelper-compat package.
Since it is not a real package dpkg -L does not work. I presume the
workaround is to either add debhelper-compat to a blacklist or to find
a more general way to not use dpkg -L on virtual packages.

This bug can be reproduced by switching to debhelper-compat = 12, e.g.
in lombok-patcher.
