sorry, replied to the wrong list last night. Additionally to testing on 
windows I did an install on an ubuntu machine. I can confirm there is a 
problem with ubuntu, but not windows.

I have analyzed the problem further.

The batik jars get all placed into /usr/share/java. The manifest inside 
the batik jar on ubuntu contains no classpath entry, opposed to the 
binary distribution packaged by apache used on windows.
That is the reason the classes could not be found.

Whoever build the package for ubuntu should fix it to include the same 
classpath the original distribution available at apache.org does.

It is still working.

the manifest of batik.jar references the other jars. no need to mess
with additional includes.


Is the batik jar installed in some special directory within ubuntu? Tah
looks in these places to detect the jar:

              '/usr/local/share',
              '/usr/local/share/java',
              '/usr/local/lib',
              '/usr/local/lib/java',
              '/usr/local/',
              '/usr/local/java',
              '/usr/share',
              '/usr/share/java',
              '/usr/lib',
              '/usr/lib/java',
