1 | Hello Ed W et. al, |
2 | |
3 | I remember about the software listings and license issues |
4 | you have discussed recently on this list. I was looking at |
5 | an Archos 101 tablet |
6 | |
7 | http://www.archos.com/products/ta/archos_101it/tabletpc.html?country=kg&lang=en |
8 | |
9 | And started looking at the Angstrom Linux distro (which is a package |
10 | manger? ) on top of OE. The Angstrom distribution page: |
11 | |
12 | http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom |
13 | |
14 | |
15 | Has a button called the "Online builder". <select that option> |
16 | |
17 | Down the page, select "Advanced" and out puts a menu of choices. |
18 | |
19 | One is called the "software manifest": |
20 | |
21 | "yes will generate a software manifest with e.g. versions and licenses |
22 | of the installed packages" |
23 | |
24 | http://narcissus.angstrom-distribution.org/ |
25 | |
26 | |
27 | That's all I know, but it looks cool and exactly what you were looking for? |
28 | |
29 | Whoever is working on the bug you filed to add some sort of software |
30 | listing and corresponding licenses to embedded Gentoo, should take a |
31 | look at this page, imho. |
32 | |
33 | hth, |
