NAME

       make-jpkg - builds Debian packages from Java binary distributions

SYNOPSIS

       make-jpkg [OPTION]... [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       make-jpkg builds a Debian package from the given Java distribution FILE.

       Supported java binary distributions currently include:
	 * Oracle (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads) :
	   - The J2SE Development Kit (JDK), version 6 (update >= 10), 7
	   - The J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE), version 6 (update >= 10), 7
	   - The J2SE API Javadoc, version 6 (update >= 10), 7
	 (Choose tar.gz archives or self-extracting archives, do _not_ choose the RPM!)

       The following options are recognized:

       --full-name NAME
	      full name used in the maintainer field of the package

       --email EMAIL
	      email address used in the maintainer field of the package

       --changes
	      create a .changes file

       --revision
	      add debian revision

       --help display help text and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       Download  a  supported Java RE or SDK or API tar.gz or self-extracting archive from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads
       and execute make-jpkg file with the downloaded file. The program asks the user for additional information and builds a Debian binary  pack-
       age in the current directory.

       The program requires about 200 MB free disk space in a temporary directory. The temporary directory defaults to /tmp but you can specify an
       alternate directory by setting the environment variable TMPDIR.

EXAMPLE

       To install Oracle(TM) 7 Standard Edition JDK, download a release  -  64	bits  version  of  update  2  from  http://www.oracle.com/technet-
       work/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u2-download-1377129.html in this example - and invoke make-jpkg:

	      make-jpkg <path_to_download_directory>/jdk-7u2-linux-x64.tar.gz

       This generate a Debian package in the current directory, that can be installed using dpkg:

	      dpkg -i oracle-j2sdk1.7_1.7.0+update2_amd64.deb

       When you're done, you can delete initial download as well as generated package:

	      rm <path_to_download_directory>/jdk-7u2-linux-x64.tar.gz oracle-j2sdk1.7_1.7.0+update2_amd64.deb

ENVIRONMENT

       TMPDIR base directory used for temporary files (defaults to /tmp)

       J2SE_PACKAGE_FULL_NAME
	      full name used in the maintainer field of the package; if none is supplied then the default of "Debian Java Maintainers" is used.

       J2SE_PACKAGE_EMAIL
	      email   address	used  in  the  maintainer  field  of  the  package;  if  none  is  supplied  the  default  of  "pkg-java-maintain-
	      ers@lists.alioth.debian.org" is used.

DEBCONF-UPDATEPO(1)						    po-debconf						       DEBCONF-UPDATEPO(1)

NAME
       debconf-updatepo - update PO files about debconf templates

SYNOPSIS
       debconf-updatepo [-v] [-h] [--podir=DIR] [--skip-pot] [--skip-merge] [--msgid-bugs-address=EMAIL]

DESCRIPTION
       This program reads po/POTFILES.in to determine which master files need to be processed, then extracts new gettext strings into
       po/templates.pot and updates all po/*.po files.	This script can be called either in the top-level directory, or in the debian or debian/po
       subdirectories.	It is run by developer and/or translator to update PO files when the English text is modified in templates files.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	   Display a usage summary and exit.

       -v, --verbose
	   Process in verbose mode.

       --podir=DIR
	   Set directory for PO files.	By default PO files are searched in debian/po, po and ../po directories in that order.

       --skip-pot
	   Do not generate a new po/templates.pot file.

       --skip-merge
	   Do not merge existing PO files with po/templates.pot.

       --msgid-bugs-address=EMAIL
	   Set the email address that will be specified in the POT's Report-Msgid-Bugs-To field.

	   By default, this field is set to <package>@package.debian.org.

	   It is intended for the maintainers of Debian based distributions, and should be used in the following cases:

	   o   The package is not present in Debian (and thus the <package>@packages.debian.org address does not exist).

	   o   The maintainer made significant changes in the debconf templates (or added templates to a Debian package without templates), and
	       does not want to bother the Debian maintainer with bug reports that won't be relevant for the Debian maintainer.

	   The default address is preferred to avoid corrections in the Debian based distribution without a notification to the Debian maintainer.
