[rkward-devel] Windows packaging

[Thomas Friedrichsmeier]

Hi!

As stated quite a while ago, I'd like to get some help with creating the 
windows packages, if possible. Prasenjit volunteered to help back then, but I 
simply forgot to take the next step. Now it's much too close to the release, 
and so I have created the installer and bundle for 0.5.4, already.

However, I have also created a page with and outline of the steps needed to 
create both the single installer, and the installation bundle. Again, it's too 
late to ask you to contribute the windows binaries for tomorrow's release, but 
if you have some time, I'd like for you to give these instructions a try, so 
you will know how to do it on your own, next time (e.g. we will probably want 
to offer an updated installation bundle, once R 2.12.0 is out): 
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/rkward/index.php?title=RKWard_on_Windows/Packaging 
.

Quite likely something is missing here or there, so let me know what goes 
wrong.

Regards
Thomas

P.S.: Even if you do not intend to help with the windows packaging, it may be 
worth while to take a look. The procedure for creating the single installer is 
probably also the easiest way to compile and test the current development 
version on Windows.

P.P.S: Does anybody have a Windows server at their hands? If you could arrange 
it to provide daily builds using this procedure, that would be really, really 
nice to have.
