[Ubuntu] How do i get Geopublisher in ?

[Stefan Krüger]

Hi

Do I need an Ubuntu PPA to get my .deb into UbuntuGIS repository? 

Because my project is in Java and my build-process is pretty complicated 
(Geopublisher is a JavaWebStart and/or offline application that creates signed 
and pack200'ed JavaWebStart online or offline applications). I have no idea how 
to tell the Ubuntu PPA how to build the .deb for me and AFAIK it is not 
possible to just upload .debs to an Ubuntu PPA.

But i managed to add .deb creation to my build process. So there is a public 
and signed repository described here: (http://en.geopublishing.org/Download) 
that provides the Geopublisher and AtlasStyler stable releases.

Otherwise i would really need help on how to create the Debian source package 
for my application. The best i found was http://wiki.debian.org/Java/Packaging 
, but i have no idea how to implement stuff like jar signing or pack200 
compression with that.

Greetings,
Steve
