I’m about to make my own unofficial port trees uploaded on a Git project, and FreeBSD has a binary pkg also named RPM, but could it fit for use of port trees?
Trinity_RPM
edition will require an install of RPM, whose base OS project is PCLinuxOS Trinity_tarballs
edition requires nothing not native, so both editons will be found in my personal ports of a FreeBSD LiveDVD project Trinity_RPM
and Trinity_tarballs
are supposed to be the mutual mirrors, which both trees are hosted on the same official Trinity TDE project rpm2cpio
. However unless you can find a better or more standard archive it isn't forbidden. For example some ports extract files out of Windows .exe's via unpackers which is hardly standard The only case I can think of was an old Quake III level editor source code being hosted as an .srpm rather than a classic tarball. It was weird but I also know that game developers specifically do weird things as they often don't quite know about standard software engineering practices.I'm not sure I understand the intention of that, but it sounds kind of weird....
