Runtime Linux

[Guillaume Dargaud]

Hello all,
I'm begining to finalize several apps for Linux use and want to distribute
them internally.

I know the LabWindows Linux runtime engine is in the form of an RPM which
pretty much limits the distributions on which it can run. There are ways to
install RPMs onto other distributions. Has anyone tried to convert it to a
..deb, or to unpack for direct installation like on Gentoo ?

In my mind is the option of installing it on embedded systems with
micro-linuxes that won't be rpm-based. Any info about that ?

It is fine to just directly copy the files from /usr/local/natinst/cvirte.  All the rpm does is copy the files, add symbolic links in /usr/local/lib to the newly copied shared libraries and make sure that /usr/local/lib is in /etc/ld.so.conf.

If you are using the analysis library you also need the shared libraries installed by labview-rte-aal-1.1-1.i386.rpm.
