Jump to navigationJump to searchAn alternative to PackageMaker is Iceberg. I use this to create packages with remote access over an ssh connection (no gui). Advantages:
- it has a command line utility called 'freeze' to create the packages from the command line, so that package building can be automated.
- package file description is in xml format, so that it can be edited with any text editor.
I have read that the gui of Iceberg is better than PackageMaker, but since I haven't used PackageMaker's nor Iceberg's gui, I cannot comment on that. Vincent 09:22, 13 Feb 2006 (CET)
detecting arch
The Lazarus build scripts detect arch in the folowing way:
rpm --eval '%{_arch}'
lazbuild
Since Lazarus 0.9.18, the lazarus distribution contains a tool called lazbuild, that can compile lazarus projects from the command line. Vincent 20:02, 24 September 2006 (CEST)
