Thank you for the help.

I'm now using the the latest version (1.7.1-SNAPSHOT).
One thing I noticed is that in the main pom.xml is missing the module
<module>backends/gdx-backend-jogamp</module>

I added it, installed the version and made my game use it. I made sure I use JoglNewtApplicationConfiguration and JoglNewtApplication as can be seen here: https://github.com/headmadegames/ArtTag/blob/raspberry/desktop/src/headmade/arttag/desktop/ArtTagLauncher.java

It's still not working on my Raspberry Pi but I get a different Error now:

Thank you for reminding me of the limitations of an executable jar.
Currently I do not care about these limitations as I just need to get it to run on a single system by the 28th of October. The plan is to exhibit the game in an arcade machine in the British Library. I can provide a proper release later.
