This page is based on the following IRC conversation: | |
<file> | |
<ongardie> what's the current state of the graphical installer? | |
<kelnos|laptop> ongardie: it works, documentation is nonexistant, and it's more or less unmaintained | |
<ongardie> kelnos|laptop: are they produced with svn's installit/trunk? | |
<kelnos|laptop> no | |
<kelnos|laptop> one of the installit branches | |
<kelnos|laptop> the single file one or something like that | |
<ongardie> "installer-single-file" | |
<ongardie> that branch is ruby and trunk is python? | |
<kelnos|laptop> yeah | |
<ongardie> kelnos|laptop: did you prepare the installer for 4.4.2? | |
<kelnos|laptop> yeah | |
<kelnos|laptop> unfortunately :-/ | |
<ongardie> do you remember how you did that? | |
<kelnos|laptop> ongardie: grab the xfce-installers/trunk module | |
<kelnos|laptop> you can modify the .xml file in the xfce44 directory | |
<kelnos|laptop> the makefile in there shows what commands to run to build it | |
<kelnos|laptop> you want to create a subdir called 'release' and put the packages inside that subdir, | |
but strip the version numbers off the package directories | |
<kelnos|laptop> ongardie: i think that's about it, but i don't remember exactly | |
