Depends on how the system will be made at the end. I would make a virtual filesystem in /packages/foo.pkg and then translate it to corresponding directories. What I mean is that you see /packages/foo.pkg on one side and /bin/foo on the other side. And foo.pkg is a file with a filesystem (consider tar.gz a filesystem, too) that has /bin/foo inside. Then you can just copy the foo.pkg into /packages and that's all you have to do. Except you'd have to consider installing run-time dependencies somehow (don't know how yet). The other way is to extract foo.tgz into /packages or just copy /somewhere/foo into /packages/foo. If you translate /somewhere to your prefered ftp package mirror, or you your CD, that is how "installation" from remote (or local) repository could be done. Another way is to get the foo.tgz, translate it to somewhere and copy it's contents to /packages. Or just do a tar xzpvf to /packages. -- Filip Brcic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WWWeb: http://purl.org/NET/brcha/home/ Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# 40994923 Yahoo! brcha MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
