Package nouveau

Open nickva opened this issue 9 months ago • 2 comments

In order to release Nouveau in 3.4 we'd want to at least package it into our deb and rpm packages.

There are a few tasks:

  1. Ensure deb and rpm package creation script use --enable-nouveau when configuring them. But we can't hard-code it as we might want to still patched release before 3.4
  2. Manage optional presence of a minimum viable JRE on the users' machines.
  3. Include some service start / stop scripts to start it and stop Nouveau

Adding questions for Windows:

  1. Package nouveau jars with the installer.
  2. is a JRE available for running nouveau? Maybe which env-Vars?
  3. Include some service start / stop scripts to start it and stop Nouveau.

is a JRE available for running nouveau? Maybe which env-Vars?

I would say this must be user-supplied and we shouldn’t worry about it, just document that you need a JRE installed.

Include some service start / stop scripts to start it and stop Nouveau.

For the first iteration of the macOS binaries, I’m going with: I ship all the bits, if folks add a JRE, I’ll document how to start nouveau manually in a terminal. Once Nouveau is no longer experimental, I’ll hook up a nice service.
