Packaging

How is Java Packaging different?

Check out the [http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/java-policy/ Debian Java Policy].

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

Are there any packaging examples?

Check out the [:PackagingGuide/Lists/ReferencePackages#Java:Java Reference Packages].
