Status Report 28/6/2011
For the last 2 days I’ve worked on integrating with the installer engine.
Yesterday I’ve tried using some of the other engines made for the console or gui.
The console installer failed to install (or I didn’t know how to use it, but often triggered a Segmentation Fault). And after many attempts the gui installer engine is well too integrated in the gui to adapt it easily.
So today I tried to use the installerengine class, but I have problems, cause it doesn’t want to parse a config file from the web. Working on it!
