Dear Offliners,
I have just gone through and done a little cleaning of the
Software/ExternalPackages directory on the
Hall-D group disk. Files and directories that did exist in the directory
named "OLD" were deleted and then
others (listed at the bottom) were moved there.
For historic reasons, the ExternalPackages directory is also the
directory pointed to by the URL:
http://www.jlab.org/Hall-D/software
There are still some source files for actively used web pages (the GlueX
coding Conventions and the doxygen
documentation).
Please let me know if you notice any problems that suddenly appeared
today due to missing files that could
be related to this clean up.
I'm also considering whether we should go a step further and create
subdirectories for the various package
builds kept there. For example, we have 16 different xerces
directories/files, most with names like:
xerces-c-src_2_7_0.Linux_RHEL5-i686-gcc4.1.2
It would seem better organized if we could move these into a directory
named "xerces". Similarly for the
various versions of EVIO, cMsg, ROOT, and gsoap. The cernlib builds
seems to already do this and clhep
is... well sort of following it. This would of course break numerous
setup scripts, but nothing I'm sure we
couldn't recover from fairly quickly. Let me know what you think.
Files moved to OLD
