With no help (except the phpBB-forum in case of +</I>>>>>><i> problems). +</I>>>>>><i> +</I>>>>>><i> In practice you have a detailed installation README for each MOD. Like +</I>>>>>><i> +</I>>>>>><i> - open file /foo/bar/doo.php +</I>>>>>><i> - Find the line which starts with '......' +</I>>>>>><i> - After that add +</I>>>>>><i> - "........." +</I>>>>>><i> +</I>>>>>><i> And more such step-by-step guidance +</I>>>>><i> My eyes start to bleed dues to such "guidances". +</I>>>><i> i'm sure misc means to say that we should have all our changes in +</I>>>><i> packages/puppet config so that we can update without issues. and with file +</I>>>><i> edits, that's a whole different thing. +</I>>><i> I was more thinking of proper patchs or better, proper modules, with +</I>>><i> files to deploy in a well know directory . +</I>><i> I only gave a part of an example. MODs are made as enhancement to the +</I>><i> standard software. The easiest MOD is like Michael wrote: "a module +</I>><i> with files to deploy in a well known directory". But in most cases +</I>><i> they consist of files to copy into various directories of the program +</I>><i> tree and changes to existing files of the software. There are other +</I>><i> MODs which can be implemented automatically - which is far worse IMHO. +</I>><i> This is where a modded phpBB3 could turn into a nightmare to maintain +</I>><i> - believe me, I've been there :( +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Of course no developper of a MOD could know what somebody has already +</I>><i> done to the standard files, so it's not possible do use only patches. +</I>><i> And it could be (and that happens quite often) that a MOD is not +</I>><i> compatible to your already "modificated" forum software (destroys +</I>><i> other modifications or whatever). +</I>><i> +</I>><i> IMHO the best way in this case here would be a mod written for our +</I>><i> setup, all changes well defined to make it maintainable in a proper +</I>><i> way.

If I were +sure that I'd be able to learn how to do it, I would now consider to +halve the time I use for the Bug Squad and Doc Team and start learning. +</PRE> + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="010893.html">[Mageia-dev] PHP + phpBB mod capabilities needed to fix bug 1956 - please help +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="011226.html">[Mageia-dev] PHP + phpBB mod capabilities needed to fix bug 1956 - please help +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#11223">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#11223">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#11223">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#11223">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
