Hi,

I don't know about Blackdown but Sun change their download locations
quite often so probably best to have a readme. Maybe something like
this...

----8<----
To use make-jpkg from java-package you will need to download a
self-extracting java installaton binary file from either Sun:
  http://java.sun.com/
or Blackdown:
  http://www.blackdown.org/

The following Sun downloads are among those supported by this package:
<insert output of egrep below>

The following Blackdown downloads are among those supported by this
package:
<insert output of egrep below>


----8<----

These two lines will extract a list of supported download files from the
plugin modules for sun and blackdown and could be inserted into the Readme
above at java-package build/compile time?

egrep '^[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"\)$' lib/sun* | cut -f2 -d\"

egrep '^[[:space:]]*"[^"]*"\)$' lib/blackdown-j2* | cut -f2 -d\"


Just some thoughts!
