Hello,
packaging for Java is not very different from other kind of packaging,
but you should nevertheless have a look at the Java Policy (same page as
below) and check http://pkg-java.alioth.debian.org/.

Hi Eric,
many thanks for your suggestions, I'll start in this way. Exist a guide
or an howto which describe the packaging process for Java applications?
thanks,
Fabrizio

Hi Fabrizio,
I'm not a DD, but nobody has answered yet, so let me try.
First, the kind of help you're expecting is a bit vague, so my
answer might not be what you expect.
For your first package, my recommendation would be to take the
simplest package with the least dependencies (and dependencies of
dependencies, and dependencies of....) not packaged yet in Debian.
In the same direction, take care of the licensing used, try to avoid
packages with multiples licenses, complex copyrights, etc... At the
end, ftp-master might not let them through and you've worked for
nothing. Same applies of course to dependencies.
These are important point because it can multiple the needed effort
without visible result, and be quite discouraging, so check the
dependencies (libraries mostly) and the licenses/copyrights before
you start packaging.
Now, to start packaging, your first lecture should be
http://www.debian.org/devel/, especially the New Maintainer's Guide
http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/
Hope this helps,
Eric

Hi all,
this ML has been reported me by the mentors ML.
I'd like to join the Debian packagers team and, in the
future, become a DD.
I need for a Squeeze-based distro, to package some Java apps:
OpenJump 1.3.1
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/jump-pilot/files/)
Saga 2.0.4 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/saga-gis/files/)
AutoQ3D Community (
http://www.autoq3d.com/downloads/category/3-autoq3d-community)
Stereo 0.2b (http://stereo.sourceforge.net/)
uDig 1.2RC1 (http://udig.refractions.net/download/)
gvSIG 1.9 (
http://www.gvsig.gva.es/eng/off/gvsig-desktop/all-versions/download/gvsig-19/downloading-the-program/
)
e-foto 0.1
(http://www.efoto.eng.uerj.br/doku.php?id=en:download)
jSVR 0.5 beta http://sourceforge.net/projects/svr/files/
Total Open Station http://tops.berlios.de/
Obviously not all now and some can be wrong/not Java. In
this case I'd much
appreciate your suggestions.
Anyone would help me in that?
Thanks,
Fabrizio
