For generating an installation package, it may need some more steps (take centos as an example): 1) build rpm 2) createrepo 3) cp Licenses and install shell script 4) tar and MD5
It would be better if it's included in build process or in document.

(please correct me if I'm wrong) I wonder if this is in the scope of build process, if not, is there any document available?" I figured this would be worth it's on thread. Debian: $ dpkg-buildpackage Just execute this command in the root directory of the repository and it will invoke Ant for building the JAR files and uses WAF to generate all the artifacts. dpkg will generate .deb files on his part. Redhat $ rpmbuild Not sure, haven't really tried it. Wido
