[gcompris-devel] 0install feeds with v9

[Aleksey Lim]

Hi all,

I've finally manged to package GC to 0install.
There are several methods to install GC:

* download and run fully bundled GC
    * http://download.sugarlabs.org/services/gcompris/bundles/gcompris-9.1-1.sh
      65M w/o voices
    * http://download.sugarlabs.org/services/gcompris/bundles/gcompris-full-9.1-1.sh
      114M with voices

    NOTE: there is an issue w/ updating Gnome menu after installing
    packages, just open menu menu editor to show newly added menu items

* install 0install-injector (be warned I had to patch 0install, so it's
  different to upstream project)
  http://download.sugarlabs.org/services/zeroinstall-injector/bundles/zeroinstall-injector-44-16.sh
  (follow http://0install.net/injector-using.html tutorials to know how
  to use 0install)

  and use feeds:
    * http://services.sugarlabs.org/gcompris
      w/o voices
    * http://services.sugarlabs.org/gcompris/full.xml
      with voices

  Data and voices live in separate feeds, so after downloading 1st feed,
  running 2nd won't download 65M of data once more - only voices for 60M

GC binaries contain
* i486 and x86_64 arches
* linked against libpython25.so and libpython26.so
* librsvg and libxml, so GC could be run even on 2008 year distro

I'm planing to make per activity packages to let run each activity just
by downloading 2-3M(but w/o voices).
