On Linux, the > packages generated by CPack are single, monolithic units. Yes that's true. The main reason was the fact that there were some (several) technical issues for creating component that had to be addressed first. Forthcoming CMake 2.8.3 has many improvment regarding component based packaging. An example of application is the fact that now any CPack archive generator (ZIP, TGZ, TBZ2, etc...) are able to generate one archive per component. see this thread on the ML: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2010-August/038663.html > I hacked a CMake script that creates a single deb-src package, uploads > it to the Launchpad build service where it generates one deb package for > each component. cool!! I'll have a look at this. > Read more at: http://purplekarrot.net/blog/dputCMake.html > Use the script at your own risk, and please provide feedback. May be you can open a new feature request in the bug tracker (http://public.kitware.com/Bug/my_view_page.php) which reference your work. That way we may collaborate to make this contribution into mainstream CMake. -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
