1 | Packaging hints for binary package distributors |
| 2 | =============================================== | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | Although the source of the bison package comes as a single package, | |
| 5 | in distributions of binary packages the installed files should | |
| 6 | be split into two packages: | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | bison-runtime | |
| 9 | Contents: Runtime libraries and programs. | |
| 10 | Audience: Anyone who wants to run internationalized programs | |
| 11 | that contain Bison-generated parsers. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | bison | |
| 14 | Contents: Tools and documentation for developers that use Bison. | |
| 15 | Audience: Anyone who wants to develop programs that use parsers. | |
| 16 | Dependencies: requires bison-runtime. | |
| 17 | ||
| 18 | The 'bison-runtime' binary package is much smaller than the 'bison' | |
| 19 | binary package. It should be included in any distribution that | |
| 20 | contains programs that use the diagnostics contained in | |
| 21 | Bison-generated parsers, e.g., Gawk, GCC, Perl. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | If you want to install both packages at the same time, you simply do | |
| 24 | at the toplevel directory: | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | ./configure | |
| 27 | make | |
| 28 | make install | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | After installation, the files | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | $prefix/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/bison-runtime.mo | |
| 33 | ||
| 34 | belong to the bison-runtime package; all other installed files belong | |
| 35 | to in the bison package. | |
