| setup.sh attempts to automate the configure, build, install routine and integrate it with the local package management facilities (or just create an uninstall script on systems w/o package management). It can be used to make your application installable via point-and-click (it works either in a terminal or as an X app), to create binary packages (.tar.gz, .rpm, etc.) without writing .spec files, or to install programs from developers who don't create packages for your favorite package manager. |
