This simply takes a metacity-themes directory containing a number of tarballs of individual themes from various upstream locations and generates a single source tarball. The build scripts then unpack each tarball to the correct location. Currently, any discrepancies in the source tarball are all handled manually - removing duplicate licenses from the /usr/share/themes/theme-name/metacity-1, for example (by manually, I mean manually adding a line to the build process to deal with it). Also, the copyright and README files are all handled manually at present. I am now considering writing a perl script to handle the data a little better. This would involve storing all the details of each theme in a table and automatically generating documentation, most probably to be placed in /usr/share/doc/metacity-themes/theme-name/. This would then also scan the theme directories (as created by the upstream tarballs) for documentation and move them to these directories. -- +----------------------------------------------+ | Mark Howard cam.ac.uk mh344@ | | http://www.tildemh.com tildemh.com mh@ | +----------------------------------------------+ -- +----------------------------------------------+ | Mark Howard cam.ac.uk mh344@ | | http://www.tildemh.com tildemh.com mh@ | +----------------------------------------------+
