Is the installer only a way to avoid packaging the SDK for one thousand distros?

The AUR solution calls the installer with a --script option, passing enough javascript to make the setup fully automated. I hadn't time to try if this works in a headless environment or not. Unless the SDK has binary only and unfree components I'd prefer a package that can build it from source, but I don't know if we have a guideline about wrapping binary releases. For instance, is libreoffice compiled from source by hydra or just wrapped? > The installer for Sailfish SDK [...] runs via steam-run Thank you so much ! I didn't think of steam-run, now I can give it a whirl! _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl https://mailman.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
