Hi @blshkv, feel free to send a PR with a fix improving the ExtCommander class to fit the newer jcommander version.
Thank you for the report.

[Anton Bolshakov]

sorry, I don't have bandwidth. I'm a pentoo developer and can't fix all tools myself. Filing issues and following up on it is a big effort for me already.

[Josef Cacek]

Closing for now. This is not an issue while the jd-cli works properly with version 1.32.

If you need a reason, here it is a vulnerability in that old version
Additionally, i had to fork the old version and have to maintain it now.

Please reconsider
