Status of Installer.app?

[Adrian Robert]

Hi,

I was thinking of hacking up a simple barebones installer application 
for GNUstep that just copies a .app somewhere and optionally runs pre- 
and post-install scripts.  Then I noticed 
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/gap/ .  Excellent!  Does anyone 
know the latest status of Installer in the CVS tree there?  How much 
work does it need (for barebones functionality, not bells and 
whistles)?

Alternatively, is anyone else working on a .app and/or framework 
installation app?

Main necessities would seem to be:

- graphical operation from workspace
- UI to get root permissions
- pre/post install scripts


Eventual desirables would be:

- progress display (preferably not bogus, though the bar is low here)
- ability to sequence multiple steps
- source-based build-install capability (to accomodate Windows and 
varying unix installations)
