Bug#500842: unetbootin: binary and Windows components



OK I've made the necessary changes in revision 283
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~gezakovacs/unetbootin/devel-new/revision/283

Simply check out the source from bazaar, go to src/unetbootin and either
run the "build-nostatic" script or the following commands:

qmake "DEFINES += NOSTATIC" "RESOURCES -= unetbootin.qrc"
make

For reference, the final product should thus look something like this
(sorry, not nicely debianized or anything)
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/unetbootin/unetbootin_283_amd64.deb

All the binary components are from syslinux (vesamenu.c32, mbr.bin,
ubnsylnx/syslinux), grub4dos (ubnldr/grldr, ubnldr.mbr/grldr.mbr,
ubnldr.exe/grldr.exe), and 7-zip (sevnz.exe/7z.exe, sevnz.dll/7z.dll).
These are licensed under the GPL. emtxfile.exe is a custom binary, the
source is in winbuild/runxfile.c in bzr, and is also under the GPL. As
for the .qm files, they are generated from the .ts files, which are
similarly under the GPL. I don't believe I have any other binaries in
the source tree.
Ok.

Anyhow, you won't need to include any of the binaries, except the .qm
files, if you're building a dynamically linked version (which I assume
is what you're trying to build and package);
Yes.

if you simply add in a
syslinux and p7zip-full package dependency, you'll have all the binaries
that are required on Linux.
Ok, that's the main info I was needed, thanks.

I'll make a few modifications to the source
that'll make it use only local binaries probably sometime this weekend,
and I'll let you know when I have it ready.
It would be great, thanks.
