Hi,
I could simply package the binaries, but my goal is to create a package
that could be available on the official repositories and for that the
package needs to be built from source.
Do you think this is the good approach? Do you guys think
GeoServer/GeoTools need to be on the official repos?
Concerning JAI. The JAI-Core and JAI-ImageIO package already exist, in
non-free. From what I've seen in GeoTools' pom.xml some modules require
JAI, this would mean that these GeoTools package would have to be put in
non-free (I think?) since they depend on a non-free package and so if
GeoServer depends on one of these, it would be put in non-free too
anyway. That is if I understand correctly the Maven Dependencies, maybe
the JAI dep could be ignored by Maven?
Thanks for the answers

The presence of JAI is detected at runtime. It is not required to use
GeoServer (but desirable for some mapping applications). If JAI is
present in some repo and then installed into a JDK, it is a
property of
the JDK used to run GeoServer, not of GeoServer itself.
Mind, pure java JAI is needed, nothing will run without it, what Ben
is talking about
is the native version of it, that can be used to accelerate some
operations,
that one is indeed optional
