NAME
epm - create software packages.SYNOPSIS
epm [ -a architecture ] [ -f format ] [ -g ] [ -k ] [ -m name ] [ -n[mrs] ] [ -s setup.xpm ] [ --depend ] [ --help ] [ --keep-files ] [ --output-dir directory ] [ --setup-image setup.xpm ] [ --setup-program /foo/bar/setup ] [ --setup-types setup.types ] [ -v ] [ name=value ... name=value ] product [ listfile ]DESCRIPTION
epm generates software packages complete with installation, removal, and (if necessary) patch scripts. Unless otherwise specified, the files required for product are read from a file named "product.list".The -a option ("architecture") specifies the actual architecture for the software. Without this option the generic processor architecture is used ("intel", "sparc", "mips", etc.)
The -f option ("format") specifies the distribution format:
- aix
Generate an AIX distribution suitable for installation on an AIX system.- bsd
Generate a BSD distribution suitable for installation on a FreeBSD, NetBSD, or OpenBSD system.- deb
Generate a Debian distribution suitable for installation on a Debian Linux system.- inst, tardist
Generate an IRIX distribution suitable for installation on an system running IRIX.- native
Generate an native distribution. This uses rpm for Linux, inst for IRIX, pkg for Solaris, swinstall for HP-UX, bsd for FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD, and osx for MacOS X. All other operating systems default to the portable format.- osx
Generate a MacOS X software package.- pkg
Generate an AT&T software package. These are used primarily under Solaris.- portable
Generate a portable distribution based on shell scripts and tar files. The resulting distribution is installed and removed the same way on all operating systems. [default]- rpm
Generate a Red Hat Package Manager ("RPM") distribution suitable for installation on a Red Hat Linux system.- setld
Generate a Tru64 (setld) software distribution.- slackware
Generate a Slackware Linux software distribution.- swinstall, depot
Generate a HP-UX software distribution.
Executable files in the distribution are normally stripped of debugging information when packaged. To disable this functionality use the -g option.
Intermediate (spec, etc.) files used to create the distribution are normally removed after the distribution is created. The -k option keeps these files in the distribution directory.
The -s and --setup-image options ("setup") include the ESP Software Wizard with the specified XPM image file with the distribution. This option is currently only supported by portable distributions.
The --setup-program option specifies the setup executable to use with the distribution. This option is currently only supported by portable distributions.
The --setup-types option specifies the setup.types file to include with the distribution. This option is currently only supported by portable distributions.
The --output-dir option specifies the directory to place output file into. The default directory is based on the operating system, version, and architecture.
The -v option ("verbose") increases the amount of information that is reported. Use multiple v's for more verbose output.
The --depend option lists the dependent (source) files for all files in the package.
Distributions normally are named "product-version-system-release-machine.ext" and "product-version-system-release-machine-patch.ext" (for patch distributions.) The "system-release-machine" information can be customized or eliminated using the -n option with the appropriate trailing letters. Using -n by itself will remove the "system-release-machine" string from the filename entirely. The "system-release-machine" information can also be customized by using the -m option with an arbitrary string.
Debian, IRIX, portable, and Red Hat distributions use the extensions ".deb", ".tardist", "tar.gz", and ".rpm" respectively.
