[opennms-devel] Debian packaging

Hi,

I'm having trouble working out the correct way to fix this. On an
upgrade to opennms with a new package I've built it fails as JAVA_HOME
is not set in /etc/default/opennms.

The postinst script should work, although the current logic prefers
runjava -s over manually hacking the JAVA_HOME:

	if [ -x /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/java ]; then
		/usr/share/opennms/bin/runjava -q -S /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/java || :
		(grep -v ^JAVA_HOME /etc/default/opennms ; echo 'JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk') > /etc/default/opennms.new
		mv /etc/default/opennms.new /etc/default/opennms

However the runjava script prefers to set-up the configuration in
$opennms_home/etc/java.conf which is not where the init script looks.
I'm assuming the use of runjava in the postinst script was intended so
should I just make runjava debian aware?

While on the subject, what was the rational of separating the debian
module from the rest of the src tree? I only mention it as the first
thing I did in my tree was add the debian dir back into my main repo so
it could be updated alongside the rest of opennms.
