Earl, I've been building binary .deb packages from Nutch 0.7 trunk
straight from ant for a few months now. It makes deployments to
Ubuntu much smoother. Combine that with the "java-package" utils for
deb-ifying the JDK, and your rollouts will be greatly simplified.
My Nutch packaging stuff consists of:
package/nutch/build.xml
package/nutch/DEBIAN/control.template
package/nutch/DEBIAN/postinst
package/nutch/default.properties
It's tested to work on Mac OS X (fink) and Ubuntu Linux.
If you're interested & possibly motivated to clean up the code a bit
for general consumption ;), create a JIRA ticket so folks can vote on
it & and I'll attach a tarball to the ticket.

Well, it may not be perfect, but I just wrote
http://spack.net/nutch/GettingNutchRunningOnUbuntu.html
which I think details pretty well everything I had to
do to get nutch trunk working on my ubuntu athlon box.
Anyway I can get it added to the wiki? I am happy to
make edits first, if needs be.
I next hope to write tutorials on getting nutch to
work with mapreduce, in a few different ways, like
local fs, ndfs, local crawl, distributed crawl, and
the like. I will likely need a little help :)
If anyone has style ideas please let me know before I
start this next one. Right now, I could use a little
more commentary, as some sections just outline what
commands to run. One dumb thing I would like is to be
able to double click on a command and have just the
command get highlighted instead of the whole line.
I would also like to try and get a straight debian
tutorial working.
Enjoy!
Earl
