to deploy existing binary-only components. We use the `ld-linux.so.2 PROGRAM' trick to force the use of our own glibc, and set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the required libraries (X11, Mesa). Since Mesa is software-only, Q3A is rather slow. I'll have to figure out how to use the Mesa from XFree86 (X.Org), since it knows how to use DRI (or at least speak the GLX protocol). Unfortunately the xlibs people haven't modularised that part of XFree86 yet. Also, the flag `+set s_initsound 0' has to be passed to Quake to disable sound, otherwise it segfaults on startup. It doesn't do this with the normal glibc, which is strange. Maybe it tries to dynamically load some sound library or something. svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=1046 |

* Classification scheme for packages
- many packages fall under several categories; what matters is the
*primary* purpose of a package. For example, the libxml2 package
builds both a library and some tools; but it's a library foremost,
so it goes under ./development/libraries.
- when in doubt, refactor.
IF it's used to support SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT:
IF it's a LIBRARY used by other packages:
IF it's directly related to GTK:
./development/libraries/gtk+
ELSE
./development/libraries
(e.g., libxml2)
ELSE IF it's a COMPILER:
./development/compilers
(e.g., gcc)
ELSE IF it's an INTERPRETER:
./development/interpreters
ELSE IF it's a development TOOL (or set of):
IF it's a PARSER GENERATOR (incl. lexers):
./development/tools/parsing
(e.g., bison, flex)
ELSE IF it's a BUILD MANAGER:
./development/tools/build-managers
(e.g., gnumake
ELSE
./development/tools/misc
(e.g., binutils)
ELSE
./development/misc
ELSE IF it's a TOOL (or set of):
# a tool is a relatively *small* program, esp. one intented to be
# used non-interactively
IF it's for NETWORKING:
./tools/networking
(e.g., wget)
ELSE IF it's for TEXT PROCESSING:
./tools/text
(e.g., diffutils)
ELSE IF it's a SYSTEM utility, i.e., something related or essential
to the operation of a system:
./tools/system
(e.g., init)
ELSE IF it's an ARCHIVER (which may include a compression function):
./tools/archivers
(e.g., zip, tar)
ELSE IF it's a COMPRESSION program:
./tools/compression
(e.g., gzip, bzip2)
ELSE
./tools/misc
ELSE IF it's a SHELL:
./shells
ELSE IF it's a SERVER:
IF it's a HTTP server:
./servers/http
(e.g., apache)
IF it's a X11 server:
./servers/x11
(e.g., xfree86)
ELSE
./servers/misc
ELSE IF it's a DESKTOP ENVIRONMENT (incl. WINDOW MANAGERS):
./desktops
(e.g., kde, gnome, fvwm)
ELSE IF it's an APPLICATION:
# a (typically large) program with a distinct user interface,
# primarily used interactively
IF it's a VERSION MANAGEMENT system:
./applications/version-management
ELSE IF it's for VIDEO playback/etc:
./applications/video
ELSE IF it's for GRAPHICS viewing/editing/etc:
./applications/graphics
ELSE IF it's for NETWORKING:
IF it's a MAILREADER:
./applications/networking/mailreaders
IF it's a NEWSREADER:
./applications/networking/newsreaders
ELSE
./applications/networking/misc
ELSE
./applications/misc
ELSE IF it's DATA (i.e., doe not have a straight-forward executable semantics):
IF it's related to SGML/XML processing:
IF it's a XML DTD:
./data/sgml+xml/schemas/xml-dtd
ELSE IF it's an XSLT stylesheet (okay, these are executable...):
./data/sgml+xml/stylesheets/xslt
ELSE IF it's a GAME:
./games
ELSE:
./misc
