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. SEE ALSO

dh-make-pear - Create debian source packages from pear modules SYNOPSIS
dh-make-pear [--help ] [--version ] [--rename ] [--arch any | all] [--state STATE] [--depends DEPENDS] [--maintainer MAINTAINER] [--prefix PREFIX] [--templatedir TEMPLATEDIR] [PACKAGE] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the dh-make-pear command. dh-make-pear creates the files required to build a debian source package from a PHP extension as it is distributed through PEAR. The last parameter passed to dh-make-pear can be either the .tgz archive containing the php extension or the name of the extension. In the second case dh-make-pear will first download the archive from http://pear.php.net. If dh-make-pear downloads the archive itself, it will always take the most recent version. dh-make-pear will by default create a directory named php-<pear-package-name> which will contain the debian files and the unpacked files from the extension. It will also create a symlink php-<pear-package-name>_<version>.orig.tar.gz pointing towards the original source. After creating the files you can go into then new directory and build the debian package with dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot. dh-make-pear tries to extract as much information about the package from the file package.xml which is part of the pear extension. Debian source packages created by dh-make-pear can later easily be updated with uscan. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the Info files. -h --help Show summary of options. -v --version Show version of program. --rename Do not link orig.tar.gz but move the source into .orig.tar.gz. --arch Set architecture of created debian source package to 'any' or 'all'. Defaults to 'all'. --state Set preferred state for downloaded package. Defaults to 'stable'. --depends Adds more packages to Depends: beside php-pear. --prefix Sets prefix of debian source package name. Each name ends in '<pear-package-name>'. Defaults to 'php-'. --maintainer Explicitly sets the maintainer. In most cases it will be propperly guessed by reading some of the environment variables. --templatedir Use a different directory with templates for the debian files. Defaults to /usr/share/dh-make-php/pear.template. ENVIRONMENT
