Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

Can I sum this up as follows? There seems to be little (none :-( ) support for a system wide installation to /usr/local -> I will amend my (custom made) installers to install in /opt in the future An installation to /opt would be an acceptable compromise? Since the "minimal Invasive"

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

Hi Rick, I will check, but I would assume that it would throw a ‘command not found’ rather than an rpm ‘missing dependency’ message. best regards, René. > On 17 Sep 2018, at 15:35, Rick McGuire wrote: > > > > On Mon, Sep 17, 2018 at 9:16 AM René Jansen > wrote:

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

I like the compromise suggested here - but of course there are limits to *nix portability, and Mac is diverging (but being more secure, etc), as is Android. On the topic of the CMake install; I recently built an installer .rpm and installed to another Linux distro; to my surprise the

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

Thank you Rony, this pretty much sums it up. Just to clarify one option below: There exists already a standalone ooRexx installation that I created for use on a USB stick, all that is needed is a USB stick (or any volume that can be mounted) with the name OOREXX5. Simply mount ooRexx 5.0.0 USB

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

Hmm, maybe we should first clarify that there are two possible installations: * system-wide (the current type of ooRexx installation on all systems) o pro: single installation for entire system, any user and any program can use ooRexx o needs: sudo/priviledged installation and

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

Dear Rene, Thanks for your input, duly noted. I am not sure if an installation in ~/Applications can be automated using pkgbuild so as to work for other users? Is an installation of ooRexx really relocatable? In other words: using a CMake - make - (sudo) make install to ~/Applications on the

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

… to elaborate a bit further on that: I use the the cmake target option to install, as I build from source. I have to use that option anyway, because the way cmake (lists) is set up now, it uses a way to set the executable path that sets up ooRexx in the path that is used by brew (in my case:

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Wha

Hi P.O., I install in ~/Applications/ooRexx5.0.0/bin/rexx on nearly all my macs. I found that several packages I use moved to this location, ~/Applications; it plays well with the changing ‘system integrity’ policies and makes for an easy uninstall. Also, I think one should not require Admin

[Oorexx-devel] Wha

What is the "right" place for installing ooRexx on a Mac? With the risk of being flamed I ask the question: where should the official installer go on a Mac? I have created a „BSD Centric“ installer/uninstaller for /usr/local but there seems to be many opinions so better get it all out in the
