Path64 and our cmake build system supports debs, rpm, tarball and various other options. Other benefits for package maintainers 1) Both of the bugs referenced above are fixed 2) Significantly smaller codebase size (1GB vs 100MB - amazing what happens when you take the time to remove cruft) 3) Builds *much* faster (Whole compiler on a fast machine and -j20 can build in ~3 minutes) 4) Very portable (Across Linux, Solaris and BSD's) 5) Packages already available on OpenSuSE buildservice 6) IRC community support - #pathscale - irc.freenode.net Feel free to check it out git clone git://github.com/path64/compiler.git ./C ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security.
