+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; You can install it with mgasoft package on cauldron.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; To tag a new version :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; $ mgasoft tag [name] [version]
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; To create a tarball :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; $ mgasoft tar [name] [version]
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Or a tarball from trunk, for testing :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; $ mgasoft tar [name] trunk
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> As you say, there is some variation in how tarballs are made. How does
+</I>&gt;<i> this 'tar' command generate the tarball?
+</I>
+Currently, it only generate a tarball from what is on the svn. It
+doesn't run &quot;make dist&quot; or anything else.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It is common for the &quot;make dist&quot; (or whatever) to package additional
+</I>&gt;<i> files not present in SVN to the tarball, such as 'configure' et al or
+</I>&gt;<i> 'ChangeLog' (generated from SVN), so one can't directly just put the
+</I>&gt;<i> trunk directory in the tarball...
+</I>
+I think it could run &quot;make dist&quot; before, but currently the mgasoft
+command is used on the server to generate the tarball and publish it on
+the mirrors, and it would not be safe to run makefile commands directly
+on this server, so I think we need to change how tarballs are published.
+Maybe generating the tarball on client and upload it with binrepo and
+send the sha1sum to the server to publish it on mirrors, or generate it
+on one of the build nodes.
