Summarizing the discussion, the changes that we want to make to gnustep-make are:
* make 'fhs' the default filesystem layout (so, by default everything is installed in /usr/local/ using a Unix layout) (with the exception of apple-apple-apple because there people are using gnustep-make to compile Apple stuff, they're not really installing GNUstep) * add help for how to use each filesystem layout (printed at the end of configure) * if installing into /usr/local/, install GNUstep.conf into /usr/local/etc/GNUstep/GNUstep.conf instead of /etc/GNUstep/GNUstep.conf * add a --remember-prefix-and-layout and --forget-prefix-and-layout options to configure (or similar) that will enable remembering the prefix and layout across configure invocations. This will be disabled by default as it would confuse new users (and we're picking all the default options to be best for new users). * update all the documentation everywhere to discuss the 'fhs' layout ... inside and outside of gnustep-make * (potentially, this is a new idea) rename 'fhs' to 'unix' ? Comments/suggestions welcome ... Is there anything I forgot ? Has anyone got a strong opinion that something in the above list is "wrong" ? ;-) Thanks _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
