- Subject: Question on snapshot packaging
Hi,
It looks like I'm going to have to fiddle my way around with manual
snapshots for a little while, but I have some questions for consumers of
snapshots.
How do people want me to package snapshots? I see two options:
1) The whole enchilada: package insight, gdb, bfd, and everything else
that is needed to build insight into one giant tarball. Make diffs
of this tarball available from snapshot to snapshot.
2) Insight-only tarball containing gdb/gdbtk, tcl, tk, itcl, and libgui.
Provide diffs of this tarball from snapshot to snapshot.
Right now, I've done #2. I've written a web page about the process,
explaining everything in (what I consider) quite painful detail.
All I have to do is find someplace to put the snapshots...
Comments or other suggestions?
Keith
