Thanks for the reply. I went through jdeb . I also found in few pom.xml that there can be elements like <debian.mavenRules> to specify maven rules . Since we don't have debian directory with jdeb , the need to specify ignoreRules or rules or properties can be achieved by one of these methods
i. mvn command : like -Dmaven.skip.test=true ii. pom.xml : like <debian.mavenRules> iii. src/deb/control directory : which currently has postrm,prerm and control files. unable to find others like maven.rules etc iv. remove the whole section from pom.xml. 1. So I want to know which is best way to go about specifying these rules. 2. The link you provided is generic one. For example it says nothing about <debian.mavenRules> .Is there any link which has exhaustive set of all elements.
