JBoss in Ubuntu

Currently, there are no debian / ubuntu packages for JBoss.

It can be quite difficult to install JBoss for people that just want to setup a JBoss installation.

Goals

• Allow easy installation of JBoss and its many different projects - as shown on http://www.jboss.org/projects/download/

Current Packages

Current packages within Hardy are:

• libjboss-common-java - The JBoss Common Project
• libjboss-profiler-java - JBoss Profiler
• libjboss-serialization-java - JBoss Serialization

Not really sure what these are however... seems like someone has started implementing JBoss into Ubuntu?

Considerations

• Dependencies to use - ie: which jvm to use
