1Packaging hints for binary package distributors 2=============================================== 3 4Although the source of the bison package comes as a single package, 5in distributions of binary packages the installed files should 6be split into two packages: 7 8 bison-runtime 9 Contents: Runtime libraries and programs. 10 Audience: Anyone who wants to run internationalized programs 11 that contain Bison-generated parsers. 12 13 bison 14 Contents: Tools and documentation for developers that use Bison. 15 Audience: Anyone who wants to develop programs that use parsers. 16 Dependencies: requires bison-runtime. 17 18The 'bison-runtime' binary package is much smaller than the 'bison' 19binary package. It should be included in any distribution that 20contains localized programs that use the diagnostics contained in 21Bison-generated parsers. 22 23If you want to install both packages at the same time, you simply do 24at the toplevel directory: 25 26 ./configure 27 make 28 make install 29 30After installation, the file 31 32 $prefix/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/bison-runtime.mo 33 34belongs to the bison-runtime package; all other installed files belong 35to the bison package. 36 37----- 38 39Copyright (C) 2002, 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 40 41This file is part of Bison, the GNU Compiler Compiler. 42 43Bison is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify 44it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 45the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) 46any later version. 47 48Bison is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, 49but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 50MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
