I've been providing an apt-get repository for Xenial, Wily, and Trusty (see http://dev.iachieved.it/iachievedit/swift-3-0-for-ubuntu-16-04-xenial-xerus/ as an example) and the name I chose was swift-3.0, similar to gcc-4.6, gcc-4.8, clang-3.6, etc. In addition I decided not to break the packages up; so many tutorials, examples, and packages will utilize Foundation, Dispatch, etc. that separating them seemed to satisfy only that itch to modularize.
I'll continue to provide this non-canonical repo (I need to get it updated for the latest and great swift-3.0), and if anyone is interested in taking it further the sets of scripts I used to put things together is here https://github.com/iachievedit/package-swift Joe On Thu, Sep 15, 2016 at 5:29 PM, Paulo Faria via swift-dev < swift-dev@swift.org> wrote: > maybe “swiftlang” is better? > > > On Sep 14, 2016, at 7:09 PM, Richard Neese via swift-dev < > swift-dev@swift.org> wrote: > > Ok so well pkgs would have to be swift-lang-corelibs-foundation > swift-lang-corelibs-libdispatch and soforth. > > Sent from Mail <https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for > Windows 10 > > *From: *Jeff Hajewski via swift-dev <swift-dev@swift.org> > *Sent: *Wednesday, September 14, 2016 4:51 PM > *To: *Ron Olson <tachokni...@gmail.com> > *Cc: *swift-dev@swift.org > *Subject: *Re: [swift-dev] Debian/Ubuntu Package > > Agreed on 'swift-lang'.
