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 localized programs that use the diagnostics contained in | |
21 | Bison-generated parsers. | |
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 file | |
31 | ||
32 | $prefix/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/bison-runtime.mo | |
33 | ||
34 | belongs to the bison-runtime package; all other installed files belong | |
35 | to the bison package. | |
