Nope - but it is the prerequisite to build deb and rpms - and was also uses for dmg, due to similarities, but msi is completely different and not supported by epm. > So, I am wondering how exactly the official TDF-released installation sets > are being built for the various platforms.

Not stored in git - the relevant feature switches are all in the distro-config, the other parameters are just details, like where to store external tarballs, what languages to build, options to accellerate one-off builds (disable-dependency-tracking) - and the packaging options for linux. build process creates input file for epm, and epm converts to rpm spec file and deb input file and runs rpmbuild/dpkg to pack the binaries into the package. without epm, you cannot feed rpmbuild/deb with the corresponding controlfile, so that's why this also toggles building of installation sets. I don't know why it is used for Mac, as there are no individual packages, but I assume that's scp2 heritage. > Similarly, how exactly are any of those "nightly" installation sets > (uploaded from select tinderboxes, IIUC) being built? How can you trace > that? My understanding is that those are the regular installsets that are created using epm. The configure switches for the individual tinderboxes are in the logs on tinderbox.libreoffice.org, and there should be a build-info file in the directory with the uploaded packages, e.g. http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/libreoffice-4-1/MacOSX-Intel@27-OSX_10.7.0-gcc_4.2.1_llvm/2013-10-09_13.15.57/libreoffice-4-1~2013-10-09_13.15.57_build_info.txt that lists the configure switches.
