Dear all,
I have a question. Im on a project which involves LipSync on
Linux. Now, in the final phase, we're porting it to Windows. We're curious
to know how to create binary packages like tar.bz2 files. I took the
URL:http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII2.0/cygwin.htm
and used
http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII2.0/cygwinBasic.exe
This file unzipped to a setup.exe file
packages\setup.ini - which contains hints and is auto-gen
packages\releases\{package}\{package}.tar.bz2 - package files
Now for our project, if we need say, bash, less, and some more utils and
my own package, how can we make setup see those files? Could you point me
to some tutorial? http://cygwin.com/setup.html isnt clear in a step by
step fashion.
Thanks in advance
PS: If its been asked in the past,excuse my ignorance but please point me
to the link.
