The Terasology Launcher is the official launcher application for Terasology - an external program written using JavaFX which is capable of easily downloading, installing, and running different versions of the game. One way to increase the launcher's popularity on Linux platforms is to add it to a distribution's package repository so that it can be installed through that distribution's package manager. Your task is to prepare such a package for Ubuntu.

Definition of 'Done'

• You provide a terasology-launcher.deb package that can be installed on Ubuntu through the package manager...

OR

• ...you provide a terasology-launcher.ppa package that can be added to Canonical's Launchpad.

Where to start?

• For the first option, check out the Packaging New Software and the Ubuntu Packaging Guide guides.
• For the second option, Launchpad's website (in particular, the PPA Quickstart Guide) might be useful.
