How well what integrates into 9.0? JPackage itself? It should all work fine. I use a lot of it myself, and have packaged a few things as well.
The packages work on RedHat and Mandrake mostly equally as well, except for the mod_jk issue, since the RPMS from apache2 provided by falsehope use completely different locations for it. If these paths are standard (i.e. RedHat standard), it might be best to follow them in Mandrake as well, or at least take a look at the falsehope RPMS and see what you don't like.AFAIK jpackage aims to cater to more than just Mandrake, so some stuff missing in other distros (update-alternatives) is provided.
I know that if Java is required to build mod_jk that it cannot be included in mdk, but still some work can be done on the apache2/tomcat integration. It's a shame that Java's proprietary nature keeps us away from so much free and open source software coming out of the Java developer community.
And the time I used apache2 was more like 3 weeks ago instead of 3 months. I am not some apache guru by any means, but I at least expected that it would serve index.html and ~/public_html out of the box, which it did not. I am willing to give it another try if something has changed, at least then we can work together to get a mod_jk that will work with the mdk apache2.
