The .deb packages created by cmake are really simple. They lack proper dependencies and interfere with the distro packages (a cmake generated package named "lyx" is different than the official one, so other packages depending on lyx might not work). I would not recommend to use these packages. IMHO it does not make sense to recreate all debian/ubuntu tools for .deb or redhat tools for .rpm in cmake. cmake should build the stuff, and packaging is better done by the more advanced distro specific packaging tools. If you look at the debian packaging it will be very simple to replace autotools by cmake: Simply replace the dh_auto_configure call in http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-lyx/lyx.git/tree/debian/rules by a corresponding cmake call. >> >> > locale: $datarootdir/locale >> >> > tex: $datarootdir/texmf/tex/latex/$package >> > >> > Same here. >> > >> Not sure what happens in this case, though. >> > > If we could suffix them too ... That was my suggestion. Otherwise packages will clash. Georg
