      1  1.1  jwise A few things have solidified since the previous documents in this directory.
      2  1.1  jwise This document will serve to contain late-breaking news until the other
      3  1.1  jwise documents can be updated.
      4  1.1  jwise 
      5  1.1  jwise Package names
      6  1.1  jwise -------------
      7  1.1  jwise 
      8  1.1  jwise Package names are of the following form:
      9  1.1  jwise 
     10  1.1  jwise 	<set>-<pkg>-<part>
     11  1.1  jwise 
     12  1.1  jwise <set> 	is always the containing set.
     13  1.1  jwise <pkg> 	is the software component (util, sendmail, games)
     14  1.1  jwise <part> 	is a division of a package into parts.  This allows
     15  1.1  jwise 	users to normally install all parts, but specialize
     16  1.1  jwise 	if desired.
     17  1.1  jwise 
     18  1.1  jwise SUSHI and sysinst will be made aware of this naming scheme, so that they
     19  1.1  jwise can be made to offer, eg, to allow users to install `rcs' or to zoom
     20  1.1  jwise in and install `base-rcs-bin' and not `base-rcs-man'.  This is in addition
     21  1.1  jwise to the bundling of packages into `package sets' corresponding to the
     22  1.1  jwise existing tarball sets for rapid sysinst-based installs.
     23  1.1  jwise 
     24  1.1  jwise Package Divisions
     25  1.1  jwise -----------------
     26  1.1  jwise 
     27  1.1  jwise The following strategy is being taken for division of the `base' package.
     28  1.1  jwise 
     29  1.1  jwise First off, utilities are divided into a few big packages based on the following:
     30  1.1  jwise 
     31  1.1  jwise 	directories	base-sys-root, base-sys-usr
     32  1.1  jwise 	/bin		base-util-root
     33  1.1  jwise 	/sbin		base-sysutil-root
     34  1.1  jwise 	/usr/bin	base-util-bin
     35  1.1  jwise 	/usr/lib	base-sys-shlib
     36  1.1  jwise 	/usr/sbin	base-sysutil-bin
     37  1.1  jwise 
     38  1.1  jwise supporting files are named based on the utilities they match (with the <part> changed).
     39  1.1  jwise 
     40  1.1  jwise Then, groups of utilities which are either likely to not be installed (UUCP, SLIP) or
     41  1.1  jwise distinct from other utilities (postfix, sendmail, bind) are separated from the above.
