[ BUILD # : 200509151800 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_02 ] Build ZIP Distribution should deliver a simple way to build debian packages. Daniel Baumann from http://www.debian- unofficial.org/ would provide a script that can generate Debian packages on a Debian system. If this RFE gets accepted, there is one question: How should this be integrated? Should the script be called from the project context menu or should it be delivered in the zip distribution? If it gets called from the contxt menu, it have to accept parameters for the package generation. Otherwise, the parameters must be within the script itselfs.
