Publish Debian package to Artifactory using sbt - sbt-native-packager

Question

I am using sbt-native-packager to create and publish Debian packages for my Scala Play 2 project to an Artifactory repository.
So far, I am able to generate the .deb package, but I fail to get it published to the artifactory URL. The only artifact that gets published is a debian .changes file, but not the actual .deb file.
I recently upgraded to Play 2.3.2 which uses sbt 0.13.5 and sbt-native-packager 0.7.4. This might be related, as publishing of a .deb file to the artifactory did used to work with sbt-native-packager 0.7.1.
I have tried hard to understand the problem and did figure out that with the latest version I had to add debianChangelog in Debian := Some(file("src/debian/changelog")) to my .sbt file, but I am stuck now.
My problem is simply that no .deb file is published when I do debian:publish. Only the .changes file gets published:
[info] published atk to http:...:8081/artifactory/atk-snapshots/atk/atk/1.0-SNAPSHOT/atk-1.0-SNAPSHOT.changes
Does someone know what I should do, to fix my publishing problem?
I've the following setup as imports and versions in the project's .sbt file:
import com.typesafe.sbt.SbtNativePackager._
import com.typesafe.sbt.SbtNativePackager.NativePackagerKeys._
import com.typesafe.sbt.packager.archetypes.ServerLoader.SystemV
import NativePackagerKeys._
name := """atk"""
scalacOptions += "-target:jvm-1.7"
javacOptions ++= Seq("-source", "1.7", "-target", "1.7")
version := "1.1-SNAPSHOT"
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(PlayScala)
scalaVersion := "2.11.1"
And for the packaging part:
// Packaging info
debianChangelog in Debian := Some(file("src/debian/changelog"))
serverLoading in Debian := SystemV
packageDescription in Debian := "Parlis Elvis Adapter"
packageSummary in Debian := "Parlis Elvis Adapter"
maintainer in Debian := "Daan Hoogenboezem"
daemonUser in Linux := "ape"
daemonGroup in Linux := "ape"
sourceDirectory in Debian <<= (sourceDirectory) apply (_ / "debian")
mappings in Universal <+= (packageBin in Compile, sourceDirectory ) map { (_, src) =>
// we are using the reference.conf as default application.conf
// the user can override settings here
val conf = src / "linux" / "atk" / "startup.conf"
conf -> "etc/atk/startup.conf"
}
linuxPackageMappings in Debian <+= (name in Universal, sourceDirectory in Debian) map { (name, dir) =>
(packageMapping(
(dir / "etc/changelog") -> "/usr/share/doc/atk/changelog.gz"
) withUser "root" withGroup "root" withPerms "0644" gzipped) asDocs()
}
defaultLinuxLogsLocation in Linux := "/var/log/atk"
deploymentSettings
// Publishing
publishTo := {
val artifactory = "http://...:8081/artifactory/"
if (version.value.trim.endsWith("SNAPSHOT"))
Some("snapshots" at artifactory + "atk-snapshots")
else
Some("releases" at artifactory + "atk-releases")
}
publish in Debian <<= (publish in Debian).triggeredBy(publish in Compile)

A colleague of mine showed me the fix, which is documented here: http://www.scala-sbt.org/sbt-native-packager/DetailedTopics/deployment.html?highlight=publish
In short, the following statement needs to be added to the build.sbt:
makeDeploymentSettings(Debian, packageBin in Debian, "deb")
