External libraries in my plugin can not be loaded by the buildtoolkit

Hi together,
I am currently developing a build extension by using a custom ant task like described here:
https://ryehle.wordpress.com/2011/12/21/adding-a-custom-ant-task-to-your-build-toolkit/

I needed some external libraries which I packaged into my jar. This works on the server side for me as well as for others:
https://jazz.net/forum/questions/48348/how-to-use-external-library-in-a-plugin
https://jazz.net/forum/questions/83810/external-jarapi-use-in-rtc-plugin

But when I deploy my plugin to the buildtoolkit the libraries which are packaged into my plugin under /lib are not found by the buildtoolkit. I have to put the jar files next to my plugin jar in order for the buildtoolkit to find them.

Do I have to follow a specific folder structure in order for the buildtoolkit to find referenced libraries?
