Customer problem description:
jar uvf updates a jar, cvf creates a jar
Provide a flag to delete an entry from a jar file
Comments
WORK AROUND
It's clearly possible to write a script that:
- extracts the jar file into a temp directory
- removes the required files
- re-creates the jar file, being careful to specify the correct
flags to preserve the manifest

EVALUATION
The jar command is patterned after the tar command, which also does not
have any entry deletion action flag, despite many years of use. Although
such a flag would be convenient for users, it is certainly not required,
and it is unlikely that we will have the resources to add such a low-priority
RFE soon.
