In the past we've done the following: 1) Build most of the available packages in the stable tree for a particular distribution for supported architectures and host them to a server. There are a couple of somewhat automated tools that folks use to do that. We stopped providing binaries in part because we were mostly relying on one particular developer to be able to take a machine down for a period of several days to build the packages and upload them to our main server, and it got to be too much effort. 2) Create the actual installer. This has historically been problematic for reasons I don't completely understand--the changes seemed never to be trivial. The installer script sources are stored at https://github.com/fink/scripts/tree/master/installer -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
