Hi,

The main idea - and what is actually already done - is this: for each
packaging format there is a bundle.
Does that mean that the installer handles different packaging formats,
such as .deb, .rpm etc.?
Your proposal sounds reasonable; however: Since GNUstep is a software
system that has no need for the complicated packaging convolutions that
traditional Unix software needs, and is quite distinct from the
surrounding Unix/Windows environment, wouldn't it be more sound to
leave RPMs etc. quite alone and create a much simpler format just for
GNUstep?

Björn
