Yikes, I lied about that. TMF also requires the liblttvtraceread_loader 
to provide the JNI interface, which requires building against 
sun-java6-jdk. Afaik, it's impossible to link against Sun's Java in 
Launchpad, only OpenJDK (or GCJ).

I'm afraid we can't provide the JNI loader in the PPA then, unless we 
want to port/support the loader with OpenJDK.
