BUILDAIX is a set of scripts that largely automate compiling and packaging software as AIX LPP (installp format).
The single command "buildaix" orchestrates the configure, make, and mkinstallp commands needed to create an installable LPP (or filesets).
(in other words - buildaix does not create RPM packages)
This package (helps) automates the building of standard OpenSource projects as an AIX LLP image/fileset that can be installed/uninstalled using the AIX command 'installp'. The LPP package is placed in the Project tree in ${BASE}/installp/ppc. The template created, as well as log files are stored in ${BASE}/build/aix.
Features
- Simplify porting/packaging software for AIX
- Output is easy to integrate into an lpp_source on NIM
- one command can do it all for for you: enter "buildaix" and wait
- lower need for outdated AIX toolbox and/or other RPM packages.
- works with either IBM complier or gcc
- automates creation of mkinstallp templates
