Binary releases

Open marnovo opened this issue 6 years ago • 7 comments

Do you plan to provide binary releases (at least for every minor non-beta release)?

I would assume that will be the case when its decided that the project is stable enough to warrant a release.

If you can't wait you could always download and compile with Xcode or just download my winery.app from my WineskinServer repot

That will download my current Development version of Wineskin, master wrapper and will have select engines available for direct download (Github 1GB size limit).

Sure, I have compiled it without issues. The question was more aimed at the less skilled from the community, for the future indeed. Thanks.

I figured that was the case, the link is aimed at the the type who can't compile/put together the final product.

Eventually this project will take over, Im not sure on that time frame that's more between doh123 and @vitor251093

Once we have done the most urgent fixes and updates we can release one :)

I guess the point is just which of the actual open issues are a must for the first release.

In my opinion, those are the legacy support and the post-Mojave branches. @Gcenx @chrisballinger there is any other change/enhancement which you consider a must?

Nah, I think just having some sort of baseline "release" will be good. Also I'd lean towards dropping all legacy support.

@vitor251093 let me finish remaking my none mergeable branch so we can have WineskinX11 dropped then and the XQuartz issue in the other thread then I think we should be good

Thanks all for taking this on - glad the future of Wineskin now has a home on GitHub with active contributors. I know @MaddTheSane is very good at reviving old macOS projects that have fallen to code rot. Just mentioning him here in case this interests him.
