In any case the directory they would reside has to explicitly mention the alphaOS version, like: sb15.
Also all sb files would need to have the sb15 note in their name.
For now I attach the software version number (like firefox_29.1) to the sb file name.
Also I have a second alphaOS install that has the "fresh" kernel switch and I use this one to create new software bundles.
Before new software bundles are created all the other sb files are deactivated; this way every software bundle is self contained and only rely on the official files. Surely the file size increases, but to me the size of sb files are not that important.
What we as a community would need is: to agree to a nomenclature for the sb file names.
Once this is done we can add sb files to sourceforge and have several directories:
Code: Select all
userbundles
sb15
sb16
sb17
etc.
or a similar arrangement.
Also we would need to agree how these software bundles should be created (dependencies etc.).
If there is some interest we could discuss it in a different thread (so we don't mess up this one)
