LINUX IS FUN

WMD:
I'd love it if Linux could act like Mac OS7 regarding software install/uninstall.  Especially since files then won't get thrown all over the place in mass quantities.

hm_murdock:
That's the thing... bundles are even better than the way the classic Mac OS did things. There were still instances in which an installer would be needed, because some extensions or control panels would have to be installed. Things like that.

Now, a true bundle wouldn't need that. It would just be there, you'd put it where you want it, and go on with your life.

Hi, I am the author of LiVES. I see you are having trouble getting started. To start LiVES, you should type "lives-exe" from a command line. I hope this helps.

Bundles.

The way things should be done. An app's bundle should include everything needed for it to run. If standard, OS-packaged APIs are lacking something, then whatever else is req'd will be included in the bundle. That way, you manipulate it as a single object, rather than a nebulous misting of files that get spewed all over the HD.

So LiVES should be packaged with all of the following?

mplayer 0.90rc1+ compiled with jpeg support
ImageMagick 5
perl 5+
gtk+ 2.x
libjpeg62
gdk-pixbuf-loaders
sox
