hi
i was looking for a multiplataform easy-to-use installer and then i've
found it
well, in order to use it for installing linux applications i think it would
be interesting letting the "installer creator" to configure the action
that will be done by a task, so you could design an action similar to:
"configure" or "make install"
as well having the possibility of getting the exit of the program that
is involved in each task should improve the portability, in order to
know after each step what is happening with the install
imagine an usual linux installation procedure, wich is composed by
configure, make and make install
when you run configure you must know if any dependency isn't
found and then the installer could try to install this package (if the
designer decides to do it so)
doing it so it could be possible to install rpm files for example
but.. we know that some linux distros require another "type of
packages", so another idea es to have the possibility of choose your
distro at one of the firsts steps
well.. i think it's all
regards
