John Vines commented on ACCUMULO-19:
------------------------------------

Applied a modified version of the v3 patch to the 1.4 branch. I need to make an update to change it's destination directory. I want to make it more in line with the other Bigtop projects and have it install to the proper directories.

> This ticket is for improving Accumulo ease-of-installation by adding built-in support for debian packing. 
> Debian pkg support requires:
> 1. Creating the deb package lifecycle hook scripts, such as 'preinst' and 'postinst'
> 2. Creating an init.d script (one of these already exists in bin/)
> 3. Integrating deb construction into the build lifecycle.  There are some mvn dpkg plugins, but Im not sure how well these work.  It might just be easier to run the deb construction as a delegated ant task (via the maven's antrun plugin)
> Outline of required files: Putting all related packing files under src/packages, which is consistent with other Apache projects, such as zookeeper.
> The following dpkg hooks go in src/packages/deb/accumulo.control/:
> conffile, control, postinst, postrm, preinst, prerm
> An init.d script (which I think can just be a copy of bin/etc_initd_accumulo) goes in src/packages/init.d:
