Provide reference implementations in C #4

Closed thoughtpolice closed 12 years ago

thoughtpolice commented 13 years ago

The NaCl source code comes equipped with a lot of reference implementations written in portable C when there's no CPU optimised version available. It would be nice to bundle these and enable them by default, and allow people to manually install the CPU-optimised bindings with ./bootstrap.sh for production later.

This would also mean the package could build on hackage.

This seems like it is actually much better handled now that I wrote the specialized configure script to run a NaCl build as part of the regular Cabal process; the package should be directly cabal install-able now. It will probably even build on Hackage.

Closing this issue as most of the motivation is gone.
