But there is gradle-ospackage-plugin from Netflix: https://github.com/nebula-plugins/gradle-ospackage-plugin. Felix, maybe this could worth a try? In the context of JabRef, we also tried snap. It was a very hard journey with many hours spent (https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/2345). Finally, we hit the borders of build.snapcraft.io that it does not allow to use the gradle wrapper, because it forbids downloading it. See https://github.com/canonical-websites/build.snapcraft.io/issues/918 So, we surely will also try the gradle-ospackage-plugin in parallel to work on a full Debian package (see https://github.com/koppor/jabref/issues/135). Cheers, Oliver
