Hi all, I have been working on some tasks related to debian packaging.
So far I have : - dpkg (creates a debian package from a directory) - control (creates a dpkg control file) and I'm working on : - install, takes a .deb package and installs it - more robust error checking etc for the current tasks I want to flesh this out as a real antlib for those of us who are debian users, and also so that we can offer an official .deb build of Ant (hopefully for 1.7.1 time). Right now the requirements are that you have a debian based distribution installed, although a .deb seems to be similar to a jar (it's just an archive with metadata), so I'd like to transition to a pure Java version if possible at a later date. Would this be suitable for the svn sandbox? Are there any objections to my committing my progress so far? I only ask as I am in the middle of updating to feisty fawn, and I'd like to version control my code in case the worst should happen.
