- Subject: generating release package from snapshot package
Hello,
I understand there are several differences between the format
of release packages (e.g. ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-4.6.1/)
and snapshot packages (e.g. ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/LATEST-4.7):
- the release packages are divided into components (core, language frontends,
test suite) while in the snapshot package everything is in one place
- the release packages have some generated files (by Flex and Texinfo)
that the snapshot packages do not
How would I go about preparing a package of the release format from
a package of the snapshot format?
Thanks,
Nate
