apt 0.7.23 Description

apt is the Debian package manager.To compile this you need a couple things:- A working POSIX system with working POSIX gcc, g , make (GNU), ar, sh, awk and sed in the path- GNU Make 3.74 or so, -- normal UNIX make will NOT work* Note 3.77 is broken. - A working ANSI C compiler, this is not g 2.7.* g 2.8 works OK and newer egcs work well also. Nobody has tried it on other compilers :< You will need a properly working STL as well.- A C library with the usual POSIX functions and a BSD socket layer. If you OS conforms to the Single Unix Spec then you are fine: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/index.html - Refer to the Build-Depends information in debian/control for additional requirements (some of which are Debian-specific)NOTICEThe C global constructors do not link correctly when using non-shared libaries. This is probably the correct behavior of the linker, but I have not yet had time to devise a work around for it. The correct thing to do is add a reference to debSystem in apt-pkg/init.cc, assert(&debSystem == 0) would be fine for instance.
