1Packaging hints for binary package distributors
2===============================================
3
4Although the source of the bison package comes as a single package,
5in distributions of binary packages the installed files should
6be split into two packages:
7
8   bison-runtime
9        Contents: Runtime libraries and programs.
10        Audience: Anyone who wants to run internationalized programs
11                  that contain Bison-generated parsers.
12
13   bison
14        Contents: Tools and documentation for developers that use Bison.
15        Audience: Anyone who wants to develop programs that use parsers.
16        Dependencies: requires bison-runtime.
17
18The 'bison-runtime' binary package is much smaller than the 'bison'
19binary package.  It should be included in any distribution that
20contains localized programs that use the diagnostics contained in
21Bison-generated parsers.
22
23If you want to install both packages at the same time, you simply do
24at the toplevel directory:
25
26      ./configure
27      make
28      make install
29
30After installation, the file
31
32      $prefix/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/bison-runtime.mo
33
34belongs to the bison-runtime package; all other installed files belong
35to the bison package.
