I'm not sufficiently versed to answer your other questions, but I'm
surprised you think creating packages is so cumbersome.
There a lot of simple applications that can be packaged very simply
with something like:
configure
make install DESTDIR=/tmp/build/
$(pkgsend open [email protected])
pkgsend import /tmp/build
pkgsend close
If anything, I think packaging with IPS tends to be simpler because it
doesn't conflate a build system with packaging, so you're free to build
the software however you like, and can then package the result
regardless of how you built it.
If you have specific concerns or questions surrounding the publication
process, feel free to comment.
