Description

The ditaa package in Trusty appears to be seriously broken:

root@db3f2b436579:/# ditaa --help
/usr/bin/ditaa: line 1: $'PK\003\004': command not found
/usr/bin/ditaa: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
/usr/bin/ditaa: line 2: `�)�>   META-INF/PK'

As a result, it is impossible to build the documentation on Trusty because ./admin/build-doc fails.

Ah, but what is this?

root@db3f2b436579:/# file /usr/bin/ditaa
/usr/bin/ditaa: symbolic link to `../share/ditaa/ditaa.jar'

Workaround is to replace /usr/bin/ditaa (which is a symlink to the jar file) with a bash script:

#!/bin/sh
java -jar /usr/share/ditaa/ditaa.jar "$@"

After this change, ditaa works just fine:

root@db3f2b436579:/# ditaa ditaa-test ditaa-test.out

ditaa version 0.9, Copyright (C) 2004--2009  Efstathios (Stathis) Sideris
