Of course, Gerd will be able to provide a better answer himself, but here is what I learnt. You're responsible for the whole build directory except the work/ subdirectory (cf "The build directory in detail" in README.devel). AFAIK, all the information in README.devel are relevant to make a GODI package (I cannot see anything about the developement of GODI itself in this file). I suggest to start from an existing package of the "same shape". For instance, if you want to package a library which is a binding to a C library which may need to be installed, you can start from the pcre packages (conf-pcre, base-pcre, godi-pcre). If the library is pure OCaml, you can start from godi-pxp. If the library needs the OCaml sources, start from godi-wlex. You'll need to do "bmake makesums" in you fresh build directory to generate checksums for the files to be downloaded. You can test your new package with godi_console by adding a line to the file available.current, before sending the .tgz file to Gerd. -- Alain ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
