Hmm, nice. Just remove the whole "META-INF" directory before you
create the jar. That directory is some piece of magic that 'jar' will
create for you and is the only difference between a "jar" file and a
"zip" file.

Yeah, 'jar' crashed before it finished creating the archive.

I know nothing about the META-INF directory aside from what I said
above.

Nice. You managed to crash the JVM. I've done it a few times before.

You said you got this program from a RH rpm, right? Perhaps the
"native" (C/C++) portion of this program isn't binary compatible with
the libc on your debian box.

Do you get the same result if you use the original jar file and set
LANG to "en_US"? If so, then it is not a locale-specific issue.
Given that the app isn't "pure java" (not surprising, java is too
limited for many things), it could be a libc mismatch issue.
