Question from the Peanut Gallery... Do they have to be binary packages or can they just be a placeholder script that then uses GIT or FTP to pull the latest stuff down and compiles it? Sorta a modification of the "fetch tarball and compile" model that Gentoo uses..

Often the packages available in various Linux distributions are years old. <snip> Not sure what to do about other OS'es. Setting up VM's / Docker instances for several different current OS'es to do packaging might be a full-time job. Even after the initial bunch of work, adding newer OS'es and keeping things running might also be a full-time job. Thoughts? _______________________________________________ Xastir-dev mailing list [email protected] http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir-dev
