    opencast_pkg => 'opencast-matterhorn',
    profile      => 'admin',
    server_url   => 'http://opencast.org',
    admin_url    => 'http://admin.opencast.org',

    db_user      => 'opencast',
    db_pass      => 'opencast',
    storage_dir  => '/var/opencast',
    java_opts    => '-Xms2048m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m';

    organization_download_link = > 'true';
}

Requirements

You have to have a packaged version of opencast matterhorn in your local repository. This has to be an adapted version with the profile changes as described on the entwine blog. We use an adapted version of those scripts for use on Debian. See https://github.com/ICTO/opencast-ugent.git for more info on these adaptations.
