#5612: Create a build rule for archiving Haiku's local sources --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: mmadia | Owner: bonefish Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Build System | Version: R1/Development Keywords: | Blockedby: Platform: All | Blocking: --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Comment(by mmadia): Replying to [comment:1 bonefish]: > I suppose the intended use is for (L)GPLed software that won't be outsourced? Yes. My intention is for the build system to become capable of creating image files that contain all of its utilized sources. Those images would be ideal for distributing Haiku on physical mediums -- selling official CD's or even handing out cheap freebies at conferences. By providing all of the sources on the physical medium, we won't need to concern ourselves with providing written offers of source code nor responding to them. Though IIRC for GPLv3, we'd need to provide instructions in addition to the sources. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/5612#comment:2> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
