Hello world, I made a package for Ubuntu or Debian, you can download here: http://www.maxvessi.net/pmwiki/uploads/Main/rebol.deb Let me know if you have some problem using it.
Yes, sure; but first of all I say that is Rebol/View not rebol/core. The last version of Rebol/view for Linux is named "rebol" and not "rebview" as usual. I just used the binary on www.rebol.com, maybe who made the Linux version applied the wrong name....
The steps to do a Ubuntu / Debian (it's the same) package is the following: Downolad the binary from www.rebol.com Create a folder named "rebol" Inside "rebol" folder create the directory structure where the binary will be installed. In my case I created "usr/bin" directories Put the rebol binary in the directory structure you made ("usr/bin/rebol") Inside "rebol" folder create the "DEBIAN" folder Inside the DEBIAN directory create a text file called "control" Write the control file. There are may guides in internet about that. My file is below. Go outside the rebol folder ("cd ..") and launch "dpkg-deb --build rebol " FINISHED My "control" file is: Code: Package: rebol Version: 2.7.7.4.3-1 Architecture: i386 Installed-Size: 1175 Maintainer: Massimiliano Vessi <maxint@tiscali.it> Description: REBOL stands for relative expression based object language. Software systems have become too complex, layers upon layers of complexity, each more brittle and vulnerable to failure. In the end software becomes the problem, not the solution. We rebel against such complexity, fighting back with the most powerful tool available: language itself. . This package contains the REBOL/View 2.7.7.4.3 binary
Uhmmm... I'm trying to use ww.lanchpad.net , but it's a real mess! I create a project named "rebol" but launchpad wants a source.changes to upload... ... source.changes is generated by a debian tool from a changelog file that must be formatted in a very mysterious way (I tried 2 guides about that, but I receive always errors). If someone is more familiar with lanchpad and can help me, I could do it.
