It seems to be the latest fad - make debian packaging tasks :)
I've started on an antlib for creating/installing/managing debian packages see:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/sandbox/antlibs/debian/trunk/
I had no idea that there are similar projects, I see that there is jdeb as well.
At the moment I don't have a pure java 'create package' task, and
that's something I'd like to add to the antlib. For obvious reasons
install/remove etc require a debian distro to run on.
My code also generates the md5sums control file.
Would you be interested in combining efforts instead of working
separately? As the current antlib is in sandbox, I'm not sure if it's
easy to grant commit access to it.
Definitely. I will have a look at your code during the next few days.
