Encap Package Management System - Usage

Usage

The program is first built via running e.g. in case of automake

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/encap/progname-x.y.z make make install

Then, running

mkencap progname-x.y.z cd /usr/local/encap tar -czf progname-x.y.z.tar.gz

will create a package which can be installed (on another machine as well) by running

epkg -i progname-x.y.z.tar.gz

Note that epkg is not intended to replace the package management, but rather to handle self-built applications in a more civilized fashion.

Famous quotes containing the word usage:

    “I am using it [the word ‘perceive’] here in such a way that to say of an object that it is perceived does not entail saying that it exists in any sense at all. And this is a perfectly correct and familiar usage of the word.”
    —A.J. (Alfred Jules)

    “...Often the accurate answer to a usage question begins, “It depends.” And what it depends on most often is where you are, who you are, who your listeners or readers are, and what your purpose in speaking or writing is.”
    —Kenneth G. Wilson (b. 1923)

    “Pythagoras, Locke, Socrates—but pages
    Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
    With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
    Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
    The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
