This is documented in the jpackage-utils package we've been shipping for
years, and this documentation is already referenced in the "incomplete"
java guidelines.
Could you cite the part of the documentation that provides rationale for this?
I have never grokked it, the docs just say "you shall do this" but don't
give
a reason at least in the form I would understand. IMNSHO the versioning
should be dropped and only the unversioned jars installed.
