[Bug 975030] [NEW] Guide is gcc (C, C++) centric, need JAVA application to DEB instructions

 

Public bug reported:

http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-software.html

is very gcc centric. debhelper will work great for programs with a configure, make, make install structure.
Java on the other hand uses a completely different structure. 

There needs to be some instructions on how to package a Java application into a .deb
with javahelper
