As far as I have been able to figure out, it's a way to package a patch and pre- and post-build scripts to automate building something from a pristine source tarball. No version or dependency tracking or database of what's installed and where etc is involved, AFAICS. No binary distribution packaging either. So it's not a package management system. (Or maybe it's an early start of a such, although why invent yet another format instead of trying to port dpkg or rpm seems odd.) --tml _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
