A packaging list for one of the distributions I've built at work includes stuff like: # Misc command-line tools in @prefix@/bin/... d none @prefix@/bin 0755 root bin f none @prefix@/bin/progname-2.0 0755 root bin s none @prefix@/bin/progname=progname-2.0
My concern is that "all of the bits for one file" may not always be available at a single place in the build. Some programs use the "afterinstall" hook to set flags on the installed binary, for example. My version allows different information about a file to be output at different points in the build process. A simple 'sort' then collects information about each file together, making it easy to then build the final archive.
