[Gambas-user] CDE. An interesting packaging tool

[Nicolas Koch]

So I imagine this has been forgotten and dropped by the wayside, but I have
found cde to be very useful in making my app work in opensolaris,
OpenIndiana, PC-BSD and some linux builds, mainly suse and ubuntu.


@Benoît
I think cde may be the best viable solution at packaging libraries for
specified OS's(that is unless you have found a better solution I HOPE!),
however compiling libs for each OS is a little different than just using CDE
wherever Gambas IDE builds package from. I used virtual box and cde on each
distro to create the libs and then packaged it up afterward.  So far I have
had good success with this method.

One good thing is that cde is not too difficult to modify.
