New Extension: wpa-supplicant.tce
« on: December 03, 2008, 02:03:40 AM »
I apologize for posting this here if this is the wrong place.  I figured I was a bit ahead of the game on just emailing in community-written extensions, and in any case I am interested in general comments on my procedure.  I have also attached the script I used to generate the extension which might serve as documentation before official docs come out.

I have packaged wpa-supplicant following the advice of Juanito and ^thehatsrule^.  Stripped binaries are installed in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin.  Unfortunately, I lack hosting space, and the size of the extension is 9.2 kB more than this forum's limit.  I have attached the script I wrote that creates the package, from start to finish.  I made this script more to document than to automate.

I have also packaged rt2860sta.tcem (wireless module used in EeePC 901 and others) but I haven't had the time to write up a script (or the space to host the package).

This is much easier than producing .debs!
