Description

Gnulib is a source code library that provides basic functionality to programs and libraries. Many software packages make use of Gnulib to avoid reinventing the portability wheel. Gnulib is intended to be the canonical source for most of the important “portability” and/or common files for software projects. These are files intended to be shared at the source level; Gnulib is not a typical library meant to be installed and linked against. Thus, unlike most projects, Gnulib does not normally generate a source tarball distribution; instead, developers grab modules directly from the source repository.

Install

Channel stable v2013_12_17-1

This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.

pkgman install gnulib

Download version 2013_12_17-1 (x86_64) hpkg

Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
