1*dec9565bSjwiseA few things have solidified since the previous documents in this directory. 2*dec9565bSjwiseThis document will serve to contain late-breaking news until the other 3*dec9565bSjwisedocuments can be updated. 4*dec9565bSjwise 5*dec9565bSjwisePackage names 6*dec9565bSjwise------------- 7*dec9565bSjwise 8*dec9565bSjwisePackage names are of the following form: 9*dec9565bSjwise 10*dec9565bSjwise <set>-<pkg>-<part> 11*dec9565bSjwise 12*dec9565bSjwise<set> is always the containing set. 13*dec9565bSjwise<pkg> is the software component (util, sendmail, games) 14*dec9565bSjwise<part> is a division of a package into parts. This allows 15*dec9565bSjwise users to normally install all parts, but specialize 16*dec9565bSjwise if desired. 17*dec9565bSjwise 18*dec9565bSjwiseSUSHI and sysinst will be made aware of this naming scheme, so that they 19*dec9565bSjwisecan be made to offer, eg, to allow users to install `rcs' or to zoom 20*dec9565bSjwisein and install `base-rcs-bin' and not `base-rcs-man'. This is in addition 21*dec9565bSjwiseto the bundling of packages into `package sets' corresponding to the 22*dec9565bSjwiseexisting tarball sets for rapid sysinst-based installs. 23*dec9565bSjwise 24*dec9565bSjwisePackage Divisions 25*dec9565bSjwise----------------- 26*dec9565bSjwise 27*dec9565bSjwiseThe following strategy is being taken for division of the `base' package. 28*dec9565bSjwise 29*dec9565bSjwiseFirst off, utilities are divided into a few big packages based on the following: 30*dec9565bSjwise 31*dec9565bSjwise directories base-sys-root, base-sys-usr 32*dec9565bSjwise /bin base-util-root 33*dec9565bSjwise /sbin base-sysutil-root 34*dec9565bSjwise /usr/bin base-util-bin 35*dec9565bSjwise /usr/lib base-sys-shlib 36*dec9565bSjwise /usr/sbin base-sysutil-bin 37*dec9565bSjwise 38*dec9565bSjwisesupporting files are named based on the utilities they match (with the <part> changed). 39*dec9565bSjwise 40*dec9565bSjwiseThen, groups of utilities which are either likely to not be installed (UUCP, SLIP) or 41*dec9565bSjwisedistinct from other utilities (postfix, sendmail, bind) are separated from the above. 42*dec9565bSjwise 43*dec9565bSjwise$Id: MORE_NOTES,v 1.1.1.1 2002/01/07 22:46:16 jwise Exp $ 44
