My understanding is that, for example, a JDBC driver can be "added" to BaseX itself. Perhaps this is incorrect.
Adding JAR libraries is a matter of setting the CLASSPATH correctly.
It seems the Debian package is very minmalistic. I have to admit I never used it.
The lib folder and tho lib/custom folder are obvious if you download the ZIP distribution (see https://basex.org/download/).
If you only work with the (GUI) single jar file or as it seems the maven distribution here, things are more complicated if they work at all.
You can look at the start scripts (probably shell scripts) and compare them to what the ZIPed versions do.
Perhaps you can try the ZIP version first before searching any further.
Best regards

It would seem that the Debian/Ubuntu package just doesn't have a lib folder. I wouldn't pretend to understand why that's so, nor why the directory can't simply be added, but that's the scenario.
The full download includes a lib folder.
