Hi emmebiTA,
I am also working at a new version of WebMgr.pl that will allow "Feature packs" installations.
The concept is very simple, i provide a list of basic feature packs "OPTWARE, some Mybook basic features , CUPSD Start/stop scripts"
and it is possible to add some other feature packs from a given url.
What is a feature pack?
a set of scripts install.sh, start.sh,stop.sh etc.. ( any script you want ) that appears in the web page.
( a feature pack can also contain some jpg files that will be displayed in the Web interface, some test scripts that will be used to decide wether a script is available or not …)
a feature pack can also contain some forms for requesting parameters when installing a feature …
Feature packs can be as simple as one sh script or complex as a full web interface…
I have a running version, only the Feature pack versionning and auto updating process is not ready….
I have 1 feature pack for optware, 1 for cupsd and one for Mybook basic features…
I propose that we work together, using this…
I will post the beta version ASAP, so that you can check by yourself…
