I've seen all these plugins already and in general I'm not very enthusiastic
about these things, both the plugins were giving some kind of problem on
linux. I wanna go the hardcore path.

The SDK provides some examples for Java UNO components and builds
.uno.pkg extensions but of course you have to be familiar with gnu make.
The DevGuide will be updated soon to integrate the latest stuff (.oxt,
licenses, ...) in the guide. And i will try to find some time to create
a step by step tutorial in the wiki.

Could you please point to these examples as I couldn't find any. I'm willing
to learn gnu make.

In general the content of the .uno.pkg (since 2.0.4 .oxt) should be a
manifest file, the compiled jar file for your UNO component and an rdb
file containing the compiled type definition of your own IDL types

What tool is used to create an rdb file or how do you create it ?

It should be quite easy and especially the wizard for components will be
improved with the next version.

(necessary for other language bindings, for example usage of your
service from Basic.
