[gentoo-java] Packaging scm-manager

[Taahir Ahmed]

Hi all,

I'm interested in packaging scm-manager [http://www.scm-manager.org/].  It's a 
very nice java servlet that handles hosting git, mercurial, bazaar, and 
subversion repositories.

I'm starting by writing an init script for my existing install (attached).  
I've got it mostly working, I think, but I am wondering if there's a gentoo-
approved way of setting a proper value for JAVA_HOME in the init script.

There is a file (/etc/profile.d/java-config-2.sh) that sets a value for 
several java-related environment variables.  Is it good practice to source 
this file from an init script?  Right now I'm just using a sub-shell call to 
java-config to detect the active system vm.

Thanks,

Taahir Ahmed
