Hello,
There are some questions about a packagemanager.
I would like to say I'm busy experimenting with Trip, which
is based
on the use of unionfs and a chrooted environment to install
packages.
There is a hint about it, it's a better approach then the
one PACO has IMHO.
With Trip you create a sort of cache between the real
(=target) filesystem
and the buildenvironment. Files installed are not installed
directly on the
targetfilesystem, but reside on a filesystem of your choice.
With a single
command you can "sync" the cache and let all
files/directories installed on
the target filesystem. It's possible to keep track of every
file
installed, and in combination with important information
about the package
you're installing (version, name etc) you're able to store
information
about installed packages and their files.
The writer of the hint, Pierre Hebert is writing a new
version at the
moment.
