looks great, but we can improve it :)
1) a possible typo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ .
~/programs/frugalware/frugalware-current/webappconfig
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ mysql_root_pass
* I need to know if you have set a MySQL root password
* Please answer with 'y' or 'n': y
bash: [: !==: binary operator expected
probably this is just a typo
2) message syntax
how about using the same format that we use in makepkg?
3) a simple makefile
the standard at most apps is to use ./configure (if there is any) &&
make && make install
INSTALL = /usr/bin/install -c
DESTDIR =
libdir = /usr/lib/webappconfig
compile:
install:
$(INSTALL) -d $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)
$(INSTALL) webappconfig $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)
