This is compareable to apache webserver, which also utilizes a traditional sysv-init script on ubuntu. > Would there be any interest in me contributing an activemq-debian submodule > that takes the tar.gz and turns it in to a .deb? From my point of view that would be great! Having a debian package source with recent activemq packages would be a great advantage - especially if you are using configuration management systems like puppet. > I can just take my code and make it into a pull request and the community > can work with it moving forward to hopefully provide support for > ubuntu/debian but also/eventually systemd Yeah, just fork it on github. Create a ticket (if there isn't already a existing ticket) and add your mergerequest to it. Finally announce it at the users list.
