Some pre/post installation stuff seems needed. What about install-info, for example? Maintaining $(infodir)/dir seems not possible by just using $ tar -zxvf package_name.tgz in a dedicated dir in /packages/ I have little experience in non-source-based installations so please excuse my ignorance. > > I understand that you want packages isolation in > > /packages, How would source code be installed in this situation? Would the following or something similar work? $ tar -zxvf my_program.tar.gz $ cd my_program/ $ ./configure --prefix=/packages/my_program $ make $ make install In this case I'd have a source-based package manager already available. http://www.gnu.org/software/sourceinstall/sourceinstall.html CLaudio ___________________________________ Yahoo!
