Thank you for your instructions. > Before using mkdist.sh you should do full bootstrap.

Ehm, since I'm on Linux with a running X that should be the default. No? Or do I have to give some extra 'configure' switches. > Concerning .spkg, do you want to create .spkg from svn > snapshot? Certainly not. I think, I stick with the releases directory in the SVN repository. I think the version number of the .spkg should agree with the version number of FriCAS. It's better to maintain only proper fricas releases. Just creating the .spkg should be more automatic. > If you use releases as base for .spkg then > all mkdis.sh can do is already done. I probably don't understand this one. Do you mean that I simply can extract http://sourceforge.net/projects/fricas/files/fricas/1.0.7/fricas-1.0.7-full.tar.bz2/download to the src directory of my spkg directory? That would be wonderful. Much easier to create an .spkg. So I would only have to generate libaxiom.al for a second fricasaldor-1.0.7.spkg? That would really ease my scripts. > Concerning making the process more automatic -- for me mkdist.sh > was enough.

FriCAS is build sufficiently often so that there is currently no need for a package generated from the SVN sources. Thanks for the hints. I hope I can produce something tonight and test it.
