We will always provide tarred source files compressed using the gzip and the bzip2 algorithm. Along with sources, we will also provide a source RPM file which you can use to generate binary RPM files for your distribution.
We will always try to provide binary RPM files. As of now, we are providing RPM files for Linux Mandrake 9.0. This RPM file depends only on gcc 3.2 and should thus be installable on any RPM based distribution which uses gcc 3.2.x. Please provide us feedback so that we can provide binary RPMs which can install on all Linux distributions out there.
Our naming conventions for RPMs is similar to the one used by MandrakeSoft. For example, the RPM files
for version 0.1.1 are:
libopenvl0-0.1.1-1sar.rpm
libopenvl0-devel-0.1.1-1sar.rpm
libopenvl0-plugins-0.1.1-1sar.rpm
There are three RPM files for each release of OpenVL. The first is the core library. The second includes the header files needed for writing software based on OpenVL. The third RPM contains the plugins that come with OpenVL. To use OpenVL, you will need the first and third RPMs installed. To develop software using OpenVL, you will need the -devel package. The ``0'' suffix to libopenvl indicates the major version number of OpenVL. OpenVL packages of version 1.b.c will be named libopenvl1. This type of naming makes it easy to have two different version of the library installed on the system and also help in easy upgrading of the operating system.
