This was my first lame attempt at
making progress on the installation front :-)
Here was my reasoning:
fis-gtm makefile provide a target called "package"
that takes the outcome of the build, and package it
into the tar file:
gtm_V54002B_linux_i586_pro.tar.gz
It contains a collection of executables, *.m files,
*.o files, and several scripts.
This is the same tar file that ones downloads
from sourceforge when manually installing
fis-gtm (as far as I understand...).
e.g. here are the instructions we use in that case:
http://osehra.org/wiki/installing-gtm
So, my plan was:
1) Take advantage of the "package" target in the
gtm Makefile, to select the binary files of interest
to be included in an installation.
2) Take the resulting tar.gz file, expand it in a tmp
directory, (debian/tmp).
3) Finally, cherry-pick the files from that tmp
directory and put them in their final destination
Two alternative plans are;
A) To directly use the "./configure" file in the
binary directory, which actually pick some
defaults and move files to their final location.
http://osehra.org/wiki/installing-gtm
or
B) Work from the "gtminstall" script that Bhaskar
pointed out. In this case, we have to skip several
portions of the script, because it really starts with
downloading the tar files from sourceforge.
This is clearly another chapter
in which I have a lot to learn... :-)
