It seems to make a functional package. Tomcat starts and two of our internal apps start, so that's good so far :-) This is exactly what I did to try it out, using my Ubuntu 10.04 AMD64 desktop as the build box: 1. sudo apt-get install debhelper 2. Get the zip of java-package from github, unzip to a suitable directory. cd there. /home/fun/bin/cedricpineau-java-package-b77d4f0 3. Move all files from ./lib/* to the same directory. 4. Edit make-jpkg and change lib_dir="/usr/share/java-package" to point to /home/fun/bin/cedricpineau-java-package-b77d4f0 5. Download the self-extracting bin file from Oracle to /home/fun/Downloads/jdk-6u30-linux-x64.bin 6. ./make-jpkg /home/fun/Downloads/jdk-6u30-linux-x64.bin This gives quite a lot of warnings, which I'll email Cédric directly if he'd find them useful. The resulting file has some unresolved dependencies, so I installed it (on a relatively clean Ubuntu 10.04 AMD64 VM) by: sudo dpkg -i /home/bmjadmin/oracle-j2sdk1.6_1.6.0+update30_amd64.deb sudo apt-get install -f - d. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-java-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
