Partnering/Repacks/Building

Overview

This is a brief outline of the structure of a partner repack.

Directory Structure

The config files for single partner live under a partner-specific directory.

e.g. for a partner called 'xyz':

partner-repacks/
                partners/
                         xyz/
                             repack.cfg
                             distribution/
                                          distribution.ini
                                          searchplugins/
                                          extensions/

To add a new partner, say 'xyz', follow these steps:

• create a new directory under partners/
• create a config file for the partner: partners/xyz/repack.cfg
• create a distribution dir for the partner: partners/xyz/distribution/
• create a distribution.ini file for the partner: partners/xyz/distribution/distribution.ini
• add any extensions or searchplugins under the distribution dir

Best to work from existing examples of the repack.cfg and distribution.ini files to see how things are setup.

repack.cfg

aus="xyz"
dist_id="xyz"
dist_version="1.0"
linux-i686=true
locales="en-US"
mac=true
win32=true
win64=true

distribution.ini

See a complete example of a distribution.ini.
