Hi All, I'm working on CPackRPM for supporting componentized RPM: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=7645 (preliminary support has been pushed to next yesterday)
then another CPack-component related bug appeared: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11452 So I think that 1) May be generating a componentized installer "by default" was a mistake for compatibility reason? YES/NO 2) User should have a way to request non-componentized package even for component-aware CPack Generator. I though CPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL was usable but it is not as (I think) it should because it is only evaluted AT CMake-time even it would still be useful AT CPack-time. Meaning: a) if CPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL is set at CMake-time ALL CPack generator will produce non-component package b) if CPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL is set at CPack time (but not at CMake-time) only the concerned generator may generate non-component install. So my question is twofold: 1) Shall we step back and may be setup a CMake policy for enabling component installer? If we go for a policy may be someone can help me with this because I did never add a new policy mayself. 2) Shall I propose a patch for supporting 2b) or is there something I miss regarding this issue? -- 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
