Yes, and this explain the interest of Parabola (Free side of Arch) https://parabolagnulinux.org
At this time we have also an . AUR (arch user repository) . PUR (parabola user repository) which works via our own works. We use Pacman (for package management) We have also our own free sytem builder from chroot including . libremakepkg . librestage . librerelease which push automatically to the repo ... Well we have tried to follow the Arch (KISS principle model) and free software as best as possible. I do not say that it is what you need, but PKGBUILDS system, seems to be what you are searching for. So maybe you wish to stay with apt-get ... maybe you can adapt apt-get to build stage and release PKGBUILDS adapted system to your needs and try to make something more K.I.S.S. than the parabola's devtools ;-) Ian Bentley <[email protected]> writes: > A few threads behind in the conversation now, but I think there is a really > great model for a source based package distribution with > ArchLinux's AUR system. > > https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository > > AUR is really neat - you define a package by including the source, as well as > any required resources, and finally you include a PKGBUILD > file, which defines a list of dependencies, and provides the required build > steps. > > As a user of AUR, I simply pull a tarball containing all the above > information, from the repository, I untar the package, and modify the > PKGBUILD for my particular environment, adding or removing flags, adjusting > the install location, or whatever else I want to customize.

A salute GNU! And one more time Thanks you so much that no word exist to describe how i am happy ridding in knowledge on my free GNU!
