 Hi,

 {{{
 $ dpkg -l | grep libpostgis-java
  ... version 2.1.1-1~precise3 installed

 $ dpkg -L libpostgis-java | grep jar
 /usr/share/java/postgis-jdbc-2.1.0~rc1.jar
 /usr/share/java/postgis.jar
 }}}

 /usr/share/java/postgis.jar is a symlink which points to a non-existent
 postgis-jdbc-2.1.1.jar.

 so anything trying to use postgis.jar will fail.


 a possible work-around:
 {{{
 # fix for package breakage
 rm -f /usr/share/java/postgis.jar
 ln -s /usr/share/java/postgis-jdbc-2.1.0~rc1.jar
 /usr/share/java/postgis.jar
 }}}

 'apt-cache policy' shows that the package is installed from the osgeolive
 ppa.
