Bug#895440: jabref: The problem continues in Debian 11 bullseye

[Pep Roca]

Package: jabref
Version: 3.8.2+ds-15
Followup-For: Bug #895440
X-Debbugs-Cc: pep.roca at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

First, thanks for your contributions to the Debian project!

I have problems to connect JabRef and LibreOffice in the jabref bullseye version.

I do manual connection and I get the error:

“File not found: /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/classes/program/classes/unoil.jar”

In fact, unoil.jar is in “/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/classes/”.

If I create the directory and I copy the jar file in the created directory, the problem is not solved.

Using version 8 of Java does not seem like an easy solution in Bullseye, since this version does not exist in Debian 11.

Kind regards and thanks for maintaining jabref
