A quick'n'dirty solution is to create a directory for your app in buildtool/sources like buildtool/sources/rsync Copy your source tgz into that dir and create there buildtool.mk and buildtool.cfg (you may copy existing ones and change as needed). You'll have to add the new package to conf/sources.cfg like any other - don't bother about server/network stuff - with all needed files in sources/yourpackage it will not try to download again. If you like, I can send you the rsync setup and the corresponding entry for sources.cfg as example. kp ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: 2005 Windows Mobile Application Contest Submit applications for Windows Mobile(tm)-based Pocket PCs or Smartphones for the chance to win $25,000 and application distribution.
