Hello: I have uploaded the package manager I use (for lack of creativity I named it ttPM:-) to <http://linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/downloads/>.
The ttPM-2005-07-15.tar.bz2 tarball includes a README that indicates how the package manager is organized. From the README: this pacakge manager is a combination of two styles of pacakge management as mentioned at <http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/introduction/important.html#intro-important-pkgmgt> - The "Creating Package Archives" and "User Based Management". In addition, build-scripts.tar.bz2 contains the build scripts that I currently use to build packages (this includes how to avoid problems with packages such as scrollkeeper, gconf, etc that install to files that are shared by multiple packages). Note that I have not yet finished building the complete set of pacakges. I will update the build scripts as and when I install the pacakges. I see that there is some interst on the list in using MSB's package user hint, this is my small contribution to the excellent package management concept that he created. I hope folks find it useful. Thanks. Have fun, Tushar. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
