Packaging

General information about build procedure

Command-line scripts for building binaries and installers:

• build/linux_rpm_build.sh
• build/windows_exe_build.bat

It uses:

• pyInstaller
• fpm (for linux rpm)
• Inno Setup (for Windows)

The default .spec file was created with pyinstaller savings.py, and was adjusted. The setups are placed in the target dir.

In fedora system there is a problem in generating and further installing the rpm. Installing the rpm gives the error:

Modify: savings2/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/fbs/installer/linux.py

   args = [

     '--rpm-rpmbuild-define', '\"_build_id_links none\"',
    ]
