There's been some discussion of apkg I missed.
apkg does NOT have the capability of running scripts (right now); I've
been sorely tempted in some cases. What about a <pkg>.sh which would
take an argument like "start" and "stop" and others?
apkg DOES support, check, and generate *.md5 sums, but these are
contained WITHIN the LRP package, not outside.
apkg DOES support the generation of a "config.lrp" which is only those
files named in the *.conf files of a running system. This config.lrp
is then recognized during the loading process and loaded last, after
all packages are loaded.
Also, there was a mention of keeping LEAF and variants on the ix86
platform; what's to say we can't generate a LEAF variant for Sparc or
something? My favorite would be Mac/68k - or perhaps Mac/PPC - but I
believe that both of those REQUIRE a MacOS startup first :-( I know
that OpenBSD required a MacOS partition to actually boot the OpenBSD
partition.
Hey, how about LEAF on a DAT tape for the HP-9000s? Hmmm..... :-)
:-) Or a S/390 variant?
