wpkg is a tool used to manage packages under MS-Windows in a way
similar to dpkg under Debian. It can also be used under Linux and
other Unix systems, although at this point it is not expected to
be used for a complete operating system.

This is a complete rewrite of dpkg 100% in C++. It is self-contained.
It includes a library (libdebpackages) used to read and write Debian
packages. This library can be reused by other tools to help managing
target and build environments.

See the documentation on the Internet at http://windowspackager.org/
No definite documentation is included in the source at this point.
(There are still remnants of the older versions though, 0.6 and older.)

We try to distribute wpkg.exe along the source code so our users can
just download wpkg and keep going. We offer Win32 and Win64 versions.
No DLL other than the operating system DLLs are necessary.

Read INSTALL for information on how to compile wpkg under Linux or
in Visual Studio. We still have to rework wpkg for the MinGW
environment, although it should be close to working as it is.

Note that not all Debian packages are supported because wpkg does
not support all the compression schemes that dpkg supports today.
Yet, I finally found the xz and lzma compression library so I will
add that feature at some point.
