Hi Edison, Understood - sounds like .deb package building is not supposed to work on master.
Do you know if anyone is working on making .deb building work using maven on master? From the first thread you linked [1], it sounded like Noa Resare at Spotify might start working on it, but I don't see any activity after that. The wiki mentions this branch in relation to getting debs / maven working, but it doesn't seem to have been updated in a month: https://github.com/bhaisaab/incubator-cloudstack/tree/debs-maven If no-one is working on .deb package building, is there an alternative way to keep developing on master with debian / Ubuntu? I can easily run the management server from source ("mvn -pl :cloud-client-ui jetty:run"), but running the agent from source is a bit messier, as the management server needs to SSH into the host and run the agent via the init script ("sudo service cloud-agent start"). I should also mention that by fixing the "mvn -P deps -pl deps" issue I mentioned above, I was able to run dpkg-buildpackage successfully, install the resultant .debs successfully on an Ubuntu 12.04 machine, and get a basic CloudStack setup (2 guest VMs, basic networking) working that way. If building that way results in .debs which shouldn't work, should we remove some of the broken options (e.g. the maven "deps" profile) from master to avoid confusion? Any input appreciated. Thanks, Dave.
