Re: Why cookutils and no 4.0 yet

Tazwok was design for a source mirror dvd also. So NO INTERNET is needed. Can't fix some package by pkgsrc.se/freshports/gentoo with no internet.

I lived for 3 years without internet. Before that i had dial-up. So i archive everything i download. I want a dvd for places and people that may not have go internet. Think about what happened in Egypt when there was not internet. I want a linux archive for rebuilding if the internet goes under or we are back on dial-up.

It takes time to debug inorder to get the build depends right

It's 2011.  Just to show my way of adding receipts:
1. get a receipt skeleton
2. go to pkgsrc.se/freshports/gentoo packages
3. find out minimal build requirements for this software
4. add them to receipt
5. build. If failed, go to 4
6. clean up files
7. rebuild again
8. push to repos.

No crappy automation - be straight and old-school, so nothing can even break (cause there is nothing too complicated).
