When developing a large project consisting of several modules (for example, Qt Framework) that accompanies each module can build and upload a compressed binary repository on the server to use this module, developers of other modules. Now the developers of the modules do not need to build third-party modules to develop your module. So. For each module there is an online repository. All happy. But, we still need to create the offline installer to install the project on a separate machine without access to the online repository. To create such an installer, we need not compressed packages of each module. We take all of these packages and will be compressed in to record installerbase. Why? Each module has already been built and compressed. It seems to me online repository contains enough information to create the offline installer. You only need to teach binarycreator as the option to take some components are not from the folder with the packages (option-p), and from an online repository. I believe that this functionality will be in demand. Kai, what do you think? It is difficult to do it?
