Public bug reported: The *.jar file /usr/share/java/wrapper-3.5.3.jar distributed in package libservice-wrapper-java is compiled with Java 1.7.0_03, whereas original wrapper.jar distributed by Java Service Wrapper community project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wrapper/) is compiled with Java 1.4.2_19-b04. This causes Java to throw java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError and renders Ubuntu version of wrapper useless when used by Java version lower than 7.
