Thanks for the PR @forrestblount

I notice within your source bundle that you're using libgcj.so.10 in your package. In my experiments today before receiving the PR I had to run libgcj.so.14 myself to get 2.0.2 to run.

What are your thoughts on that?

I actually engaged an odesker, Toufique Imam, to compile this binary, so I can't speak to why he chose libgcj.so.10 -- after struggling more than 2 hours I took to odesk and saw he had some relevant experience. I'll engage him and see if he'll explain more here.

@forrestblount great - no problem if he doesn't but would be very handy if we could understand.

This worked great for me as a compiled binary that I dropped into vendor/pdftk/bin and lib folders and pushed to Heroku to get 2.02 working

@rylanb I don't actually work with this library anymore, unfortunately. I'd be happy to pass repository ownership over to you if you're interested?

I actually don't even know how to compile the binaries for this if a new version even came out.

But, PDFTK doesn't really seem to be updated anymore, so I could organize this a little bit more to have the two versions and some more info in the README if you're not interested.
