How does a Gobo-style package management system deal w/ security updates for shared components? Do you rely on the vendor that packages them?

- digi_owl 11y agoI guess it will depend on the size of the distro project backing it. Gobo, by "virtue" of being a small group, can't provide a large store of pre-compiled packages. Thus one at present have to rely on compiling on ones own. That said, once compiled a binary package can be produced by simply creating a compressed archive of the content of /Programs/app-name/app-version (an official binary package is a bit more involved to ensure compatibility with the latest released iso). Beyond that i am not quite sure what you are asking.
