It is unfortunate that JNA defaults to looking in a system location for libjnidispatch.so, since that means that non-packaged Java applications which happen to put a different version in their classpath will pick up the wrong binary. You should need to opt in to using the system library. For purposes of this package I would suggest that the DLL be moved, and packages depending on this one which wish to use it should add that location to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. (If they neglect to do so, the worst that happens is that JNA unpacks its bundled DLL into a temporary directory at runtime, with a small performance penalty.)
