About

These directories contain scripts to help build and
package OpenVPN and its dependencies for various
hardware platforms and operating systems. You do not
need any of these scripts if you're building a native
version of OpenVPN on a UNIX-like or Windows operating
system.

Thorough documentation is available in the OpenVPN wiki:

<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn>

Directories

The "windows-msi" subdir contains scripts to
build and package OpenVPN on Windows for Windows.

The "release" subdir contains scripts to prepare
the source tarballs and tag the git repositories.
It also has scripts to orchestrate the other parts
of the build.

The "debian-sbuild" subdir contains scripts to build
Debian packages for all supported distributions.

Previously there were "windows-nsis" and "generic"
subdirectories available that implemented an
alternative build system for Windows installers
based on mingw cross-compilation. Those build
scripts were removed since they were not maintained
anymore. You can find the last version before removal
in branch release/2.6.

Please refer to the README files in the subdirectories
for further information.
