Hi all. I've managed ( thanks to a developer I hired ) to build Gtk3 libraries and Perl bindings that work with Strawberry Perl. I'm now planning on maintaining the Gtk3 and binding stuff, and hosting Windows binaries. I have a reasonable idea of the legal requirements involved in redistributing open-source stuff, but I'm basically looking for people's blessing to distribute ( at this point ) a large package that includes everything, and call it something like: strawberry-5.20.1-gtk-3.14.3-v1.0.zip. Does anyone have objections to me using the 'strawberry' name? Or any other objections?
In the medium term, I hope to be able to break things out into individual packages that people can install on top of an existing Strawberry Perl installation ( or maybe even have this work rolled into Stawberry Perl ), but at this point, I have one large installation directory and a repeatable process to build things. On the topic of packaging things ... if anyone knows an easy solution for making these individual packages under mingw & msys, that will help a lot. I had a look at the tools used in the build of Camelbox ( another such project, but targeting Gtk2 ), and from what I could tell, the process was basically doing a comparison of the filesystem before & after installing each package to determine what files should be added to a package. Is this the only way of doing this? If it is, I guess I'll go down that path too ... Dan
