I worked through the ant build issues (lack of network connectivity on PPA build servers) by including the maven-downloaded jars in the source, then shuffling them to build/lib/ during dpkg-buildpackage. This really is not ideal from a "proper" deb build perspective, but it is functional for dropping nearly identical upstream debs in a PPA. Trusty (14.04) and Precise (12.04) are supported (not going to bother with any non-LTS releases). https://launchpad.net/~mshuler/+archive/ubuntu/cassandra-2.0 https://launchpad.net/~mshuler/+archive/ubuntu/cassandra-2.1 was (Author: mshuler): These PPAs may go away, be changed at any time, or not be updated - DO NOT RELY ON THEM, this was just a test.
