I think you can do this with the source-install (apt), without considering that apt doesnt pretend to be a fully customizable installer, since, for some kind of structural reason (_there_is_no_standard_) this cannot be, under any circustance, true. >Once such a source based packae manager is designed, it could also be used >for generating our binary packages. You should still "pack" (or at least accomodate) any source tarball you want gnu's user to be able to install. andrea _______________________________________________ gnu-system-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-system-discuss
