Binary packages #146

Open godalming123 opened 1 year ago

godalming123 commented 1 year ago

Is it possible to have binary packages instead of getting users to build from source

jbuchermn commented 1 year ago

I'd not oppose it 👍🏻

but I haven't got time to do it myself

godalming123 commented 1 year ago

If theres a way to make cmake (or whatever build system you use) produce builds that work on any x86-64 system then I can just build it myself since all I want is to make a custom repo for the kiss package manager

jbuchermn commented 1 year ago

You can check out the nix files, which is the build system I use.

As this uses pip and meson underneath and newm is just a python package it's possibly however not that easy to package it standalone. I'm no expert on that however...
