Hello! I wanted to update y'all on my progress in bundling deb packages into snaps.
I've got a few new rough-and-ready scripts in the tools folder of lp:~mterry /+junk/snappy-preload that may be of interest to others: *dep-tree*: prints the full Depends and Recommends tree of a given package, optionally excluding anything in a provided manifest *copy-deb*: copies all files from an installed deb into a separate file tree (this is very naive, and will miss things like compiled schemas) *make-snap*: you can provide this with an executable from a package on your system, it will bundle up all the files needed to run it, add the libsnappypreload.so library, plus a wrapper to set the preload bits up, and puts it all in a snap. This is also very rough and needs to be run from the tools/ directory. It also does not yet allow for any setup your executable might need, like running X first. With all those provisos, it still can be useful for simple programs. I'm working on building it out. -- -mt
