Right: I think that's the one that is crashing.

No. it's the just-built jar, and it hasn't been tested yet, and it
might not even be for the same architecture as the host machine.

It's not installed yet. If you don't have a working gjar it should be
possible to use zip to create the archive. But I would have expected
that you should be able to use your distro's gjar. if this crashing
program *is* your distro's gjar, then that's another problem.
