I'm thinking of creating a wrapper script for Compile and InstallPackage so that one only has to gie one command to install an app. The application should be installed from recipe or from package depending on settings in a configuration file. This could later be used to update an app to the latest available version and maybe system wide updates. A bit like Manager, but for the prompt. Perhaps the script could wrap tools like DisableProgram and SymlinkProgram as well?
I was thinking about something like that sometime ago. Probably having such kind of central script could make it easier for the user to perform typical system management actions, like update, install, remove, disable or enable a package (without having to consult the documentation of many scripts). That's the way other distros use to have they functionalities, right? Not that this means this is the right way, but it certainly easies the initial usage of GoboLinux for those coming from Gentoo, RedHat, Debian, etc.
My question is: what should it be called? git - GoboLinux Install Tool or perhaps gpm - GoboLinux Program Manager?
Probably not good options, since they already being used by other programs... I don't have a good suggestion right now :-/ -- Andre Detsch _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
