Request: Releases include an attached Distribution tarball #181

Closed abelbeck closed 7 years ago

abelbeck commented 7 years ago

It looks like a new release may be on the horizon, as such it would be very helpful if a Distribution tarball was attached (and SHA1 hash if you wish) with the configure script pre-generated.

Additionally, attached files are more convent for distros to download since the filenames can be of the form: sngrep-1.4.3.tar.gz

For example the netcalc project: https://github.com/troglobit/netcalc/releases

Hi @abelbeck

In the initial releases (0.x.x) a configure script was included in the releases, but it worked/failed depending on the version of automake of the system (See this comment), so I dediced to include the bootstrap.sh (like other projects include autogen.sh) so everybody could do a working configure script by themselfs. In other words, I still don't know how to release a generic flawless configure script for everyone :sweat_smile:

For the tarball of the source, I will do it from now on. It's not too much effort to attach a couple of files :)

Thanks for the feedback!

@Kaian Thanks for the explanation, the tarball helps a lot.

No problem!

I'm closing then.

Reopen if you need anything more. Or if someone has any trick to do a good configure screen or any related documentation
