I think Tim should get an account on build.o.o and try it out... It
does help to have everything in one place.
So having tgz and the patches is enough to have it ported to Trinity?
In that case the most of the applications we discussed recently can be ported.
They build well for the upcoming OpenSUSE 11.4 and if you say Trinity is
source-compatible with KDE 3.5.10, nearly all of them are also compatible
with Trinity.
^_^ that's right.
By the way, what do you do with packages which require external dependencies
(i.e. those which are part of the distro itself and not included in Trinity)?
Can such packages be included in Trinity?
When I'm done with the Trinity base, we can test it and see how it
works. When I'm done wrestling with that (very soon), I can check out
the external packages and see if other major distributions have it in
their repos, (
sophie.zarb.org and
fr2.rpmfind.net ftw!). They should
not be that much different. If they don't, we'll have to come up with
a solution.
