Clarify what libexecs is

Open nightkr opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

Searching both DuckDuckGo and GitHub for "libexecs" was spectacularly, since they both assume that I was talking about the concept of libexec folders. I also couldn't find "libexecs" in the GitHub repository list of either @rd235 or @virtualsquare. It's also not mentioned by that name in https://wiki.virtualsquare.org/#/repos. https://wiki.virtualsquare.org/#/install refers to the Debian package libexecs-dev, which... doesn't have any upstream links beyond the general https://virtualsquare.org/ and the Debian fork of the sources.

Eventually, https://salsa.debian.org/virtualsquare-team/s2argv-execs clued me in to that I was probably looking at the wrong repository name entirely... eventually leading me to https://github.com/virtualsquare/s2argv-execs/, which is indeed listed on https://wiki.virtualsquare.org/#/repos as well.

Maybe this relationship could be clarified somehow, to ease the next person's trek.. Perhaps a comment with a repository link in CMakeList.txt, or a mention on #/repos that it provides the library libexecs?
