Look into Gentoo's ebuild system. If you're OK with python and bash, you can probably figure out how to make it work in a stand-alone manner. If you're doing this enough to need an actual system for it, then you might just try Gentoo and do the whole shebang. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
