Description quetschke 2003-05-21 18:54:01 UTC 
With the following patches it is much easier to get new localizations
delivered.

Prerequisits:

Copy/move:
readlicense_oo/source/license/unx/LICENSE        to source/license/LICENSE
readlicense_oo/source/license/unx/license.html   to source/license/license.html
readlicense_oo/source/license/wnt/license.txt    to source/license/license.txt

Copy the attached perl file inst_lang.pl to
  readlicense_oo/util/inst_lang.pl

Apply readl_d.lst to readlicense_oo/prj/d.lst

And apply readl_solenv.diff to patch deliver.pl

Hi Martin,
is this something for you? If not, please retarget this issue.

set target to post 1.1

Allthough it is quite obvious that we need some better way to deliver
from readlicense_oo, I am against using module specific scripts as
proposed here. The problem is that deliver.pl does some more things
than just copying (*). If we outsource the copy job, we will loose
this other functionality. Of course we could enhance the proposed
script inst_lang.pl, but long term this would be a maintenance nightmare.
Further more, this proposal only fights against on part of the
ugliness of that d.lst. It would still look not very smart to copy one
license files unchanged into quite some language dependent subdirs, I
think. Why can't we live with one file on solver used for all languages?

(*) Here: 
- zip all delivered files together, if $opt_zip is used (default and
essential for Hamburg use).
- remove all delivered files if $opt_delete
and Chris Halls just implemented more, see issue 14653

Unneeded feature.
