Scripting plugin does not work (classpath problem)

Reproduce:

Install

* freemind
* freemind-plugins-script

Open Freemind, create a new map, create a node, open the script editor via

Tools > Script Editor

Create a new script

Actions > New Script

Enter a very basic script (this one should set the node text to "Test Value")

 = "Test Value"

And run it

Actions > Run

What should happen : the node text changes to "Test Value"
What does happen : Nothing visible in UI
Stack trace is logged to STDERR (see below)

Problem is a classpath issue : package `groovy` correctly depends on the libasm3-java package which contains the interface listed as NoClassDefFoundError

Classpath obtained from installed freemind starter script ==

::/usr/share/freemind/lib/freemind.jar:/usr/share/java/SimplyHTML.jar:/usr/share/java/gnu-regexp.jar:/usr/share/java/jibx-run-1.1.6a.jar:/usr/share/java/xpp3.jar:/usr/share/freemind/lib/bindings.jar:/usr/share/java/forms.jar:/usr/share/freemind

Suggestion : starter script should construct additional classpath entries from a file installed with the plugins, e.g. put entries in files in /etc/freemind/classpath.d/ or /usr/share/freemind/plugins/classpath.d/ (or wherever is most appropriate for debian pacakges)

Is there a standard way of constructing classpaths based on this sort of thing in Debian? If not, there probably should be.

Adding the following entries to the classpath renders the test above functional ; the "full" versions of these jars may be overkill, I suppose.

/usr/share/java/asm3-all.jar
/usr/share/java/antlrall.jar
