[csw-users] Build php5 from scratch...

[Mark McCoy]

s/faast/fast/   ;)

Cory,

I noticed that you are using the GAR ports system to build your
packages.  Is this something a lot of blastwave maintainers use?  I've
been looking for ways to help with creating packages and blastwave
ports, but I hesitated when I saw the details of the SysV pkgbuilding
tools (I also don't have all of the architectures/OS revisions that
blastwave supports to test on).

gnutopkg works OK, once I kludged in a special Makefile.gnutopkg step,
but I never even thought about GAR.

Maybe I'll work up a lighttpd package with this as a test....

Thanks, Mark

Is there somewhere where I can read up on using this with blastwave?
