xbps - xtraeme's binary package ystem.
|

|

It is a simple build package system that installs packages inside of
|
||||
a chroot in a destination directory. Once the package has been installed
|
||||
into this directory, you can make it appear/unappear at the master directory
|
||||
at any time. It's in spirit the same than GNU stow, but the files are just
|
||||
copied (there are no soft/hard links).
|
||||
xbps is a new binary package system, taken ideas from other free available
|
||||
implementations, such as dpkg/apt, RPM, pacman and others. Metadata handling
|
||||
as package databases are handled by proplib. Multiple compression formats
|
||||
are supported in binary packages thanks to libarchive.
|
||||
|
||||
xbps has been designed for Linux, and for the moment I'm not interested to
|
||||
make it work on any other random OS. I've been a NetBSD developer for some
|
||||
years and I do not want to come back... also the experience has helped to
|
||||
me to start xbps and not to use pkgsrc, which is very portable but also
|
||||
not so fast.

||||
make it work on any other random OS. xbps is the base to create a basic
|
||||
Linux system.
