Play 2.2 comes with sbt-native-packer out of the box. However you have to configure everything yourself, which is not very comfortable.

Could the next version of this plugin just provide the default configuration? This would be awesome.

Yes, I too read about the new out-of-the-box feature!

Luckily such a reduction should just mean removing some unnecessary pieces... you up for submitting that pull request ?

I will try today, cause I really need to get my head around the sbt-native-packager plugin.

The default structure the sbt-native-packer plugin creates looks as follows:

/etc/<appName><version> -> /usr/share/<appName>/conf
/usr/share/bin/<appName> -> ../share/<appName>-<version>/bin/<appName> (in lowercase)
/usr/share/<appName>-<version>/
- README
- bin/
- conf/application.conf
- lib/
- share/doc/api/

I try to use this structure.
