Package Management Policy

  • glaucus uses the filesystem tree as its database to store package metadata and recipes

Cerata

Repository Layout

  • /var/cache/rad/local (local binary packages, contains sac (DESTDIR) + tarball + sum)
  • /var/cache/rad/pkg (fetched binary packages, signed)
  • /var/cache/rad/src (source tarballs, read-only, equals SRCD)
  • /var/lib/rad/clusters/cerata (official cluster, equals CERD)
  • /var/lib/rad/clusters/custom (custom cluster)
  • /var/lib/rad/local (track installed packages using another form of metadata, with checksums and files)
  • /var/log/rad (log files, equals LOGD)
  • /var/tmp/rad (temporary src and bld for native)
