== Building ==

Many Java packages require that the build^dependencies are installed in order to build a source package. If you work with many different Java packages with different or conflicting build-dependencies, you may want to build your source packages in a snapshot chroot.

The buildds have a debconf setting to automatically accept the Sun Java licenses, to allow autobuilding of packages. The following command will replicate this configuration for your build chroots:
{{{
echo "buildd shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 boolean true" | debconf-set-selections
}}}
