Build and host bottles for Linux and macOS #21

Closed drbenmorgan closed 5 years ago

drbenmorgan commented 7 years ago

To help with Continuous Integration and user experience, we need to provide binary bottles for Formulae in this tap.

  1. Can simplify install for users as heavyweight packages like Root/Geant4/GCC do not need to be compiled from scratch.
  2. For CI, required so that build is not time consumed by installing dependencies.

Primary platform for this is macOS so that dependencies are easily installed in Travis CI. Linux lower priority as we can use Docker images in Travis for now. Linux is also more complicated due to use of custom glibc and GCC CXX ABI issues. We may therefore also need to customise bottles for C++ dependencies so that these are compiled with C++11/14 as required.
