Binary release? #79

Open jcharaoui opened 5 years ago

Is there any chance a binary release of this tool might happen?

I've been trying to build this myself on Debian stretch, but have been unsuccessful. opam is unable to resolve the required dependencies for the latest release (0.12.0).

It's easy to get a binary(rpm) from xcp-ng project. https://updates.xcp-ng.org/7/7.6/base/x86_64/Packages/ It is easy to extract the executable from rpm. But it actually follows XenServer releases not each upstream project. So the latest vhd-tool available there is not the latest in GitHub.

The latest release is v.0.32.0, it is probably not released on opam. You should add https://github.com/xapi-project/xs-opam as your remote opam repository if you want to build it
