David Nalley commented on CLOUDSTACK-150:
-----------------------------------------

So not arguing with the work you want to do here - but this seems circular to 
me - maven calls rpmbuild which calls maven? 
Why not a compile +install profile that allows you to define where you want 
things to go (think of options like --prefix=path and --bindir=/path in a make 
world). 

And then just calling rpmbuild to call those profiles and assemble the package 
- that would effectively get rid of waf - and mean that the work necessary to 
get deb and rpm into shape is really upstream of the package itself (less work, 
I think)
