I've changed the mkdist script to ensure that csbuild and cs-sh are
executable, however I wonder whether we may have to change the way we
package the distribution in order to make sure that they are executable
on
the target system. Basically, I think this would mean having csbuild
and
cs-sh in a tar.
We could do something like this:
csuite-src-base-1.0.tar.gz
|
`- csuite-1.0/{csbuild,cs-sh,README,etc...}
`- csuite-1.0/src-*.tar.gz
Where src-*.tar.gz would only include the packages needed by csuite.
Then, we could have the optional packages in seperate src-*.tar.gz
files.
src-lib-gettext.tar.gz, src-bin-textutils.tar.gz, etc...
Or, if a person didn't feel like downloading all of these files
seperately, we could have one big package csuite-src-all-1.0.tar.gz
Now that I think of it, it would be nice if we had anonoymous ftp set up
for the optional packages so that if, during the system characterization
stage of an install, it was determined that certain packages were
needed,
a link could be provided to download them into the distribution
directory.
Any other thoughts?

It will only ask for your preferred language once.
