Hi Wido/Hugo/Noa, I see the latest changes for packaging is not present under ASF packaging branch. I tried to clone https://github.com/noaresare/incubator-cloudstack/commits/packaging to track the changes which are happening at present. I tried executing packaging/centos63/package.sh but it doesn't produce any result. Could you please let us know the status on that?

Happy hacking, hope to see some debs. We need to handle is fix rpm build as well because of some new artifacts, plugins and we will have more of those when javelin merges.
