Thanks, I have some more questions. Some of the patch proposal will add dependencies on debian specific tools (dpkg-xxx). I know you wanted to make debian generator run even if debian tools were not installed (i.e. building a deb on rpm based distros). Alex seems to think that being independent of dpkg-xxx tools http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2008-November/025030.html So what should we do? 1) Use dpk-XXX when they are found and then fallback to "autonomous [may be less-powerfull] mode" if they are not found? 2) Avoid ANY dependencies on dpk-XXX ? I would vote for 1) because I found 2) too restrictive, however there may be a 3rd option which would be to create a new DEB2 CPack generator which requires dpkg-xxx tools? -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org _______________________________________________ cmake-developers mailing list [email protected] http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
