I guess we could walk the middle ground here for DEBs just like we do
for RMPs no? Which means - have java dependency bundle packages and
release from resources.ovirt.org...

I would love to see a discussion on what it would take to get DEBs
through the CI system. I guess we would need some sort of
'build-artifacts.sh.deb' (Or deb8? dep9? not sure what is the
convention for Debian version shorthands), some Debian build slaves
and Debian equivalents of mock_runner.sh and repoan.
