1) Take advantage of the "package" target in the
gtm Makefile, to select the binary files of interest

3) Finally, cherry-pick the files from that tmp
directory and put them in their final destination
Two alternative plans are;
A) To directly use the "./configure" file in the
binary directory, which actually pick some
defaults and move files to their final location.

or
B) Work from the "gtminstall" script that Bhaskar
pointed out. In this case, we have to skip several
portions of the script, because it really starts with
downloading the tar files from sourceforge.
[KSB] gtminstall as a stand-alone script will download and install
the latest GT.M release from Source Forge. But when executed as
part of a GT.M distribution, it installs the distribution it is
bundled with.
I'm not sure whether Luis can turn this into a recommendation. At least
I can not parse this as something like: Luis, stay on your track. /
Luis, pick alternative A) or B).
For me this sounds like another wording for alternative B). Do you
think it is a good idea to just strip the downloading part from
gtminstall and use the remaining code?
[KSB2] I would recommend that Luis use approach B. Since he will always
package gtminstall with GT.M, he does not need to strip the downloading
part and he can use it as is.

Kind regards
