I just learned that the tar is being done programmatically in java. I was told there is a java component that will issue the tar.
Very interesting.
My java friend will now do a test to executing the tar from unix proper and not from java.
thanks

make-jpkg
MAKE-JPKG(1) General Commands Manual MAKE-JPKG(1)
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_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.
