The Zero Install system aims to provide a better way of installing software than traditional systems (tarballs, apt-get, bundles, setup.exe, etc). Here are some of our goals:
Anyone can install software
You don't have to be root just to install a word-processor.
Anyone can distribute software
You don't need to be blessed by a distribution (or anyone else) to be part of Zero Install.
It doesn't matter whether software is installed or not
You just run it. Zero Install handles the rest (downloading and caching as needed).
Downloads are shared
If one user installs a 20 Mb application, another user can run it without downloading it again.
Users don't need to trust each other
If one user downloads a malicious program, other users aren't affected.
"0安装"
0install是一个工具,它的目的是:完全解决linux的依赖关系问题.
并且不用root权限。
安装该工具后,按照它的说明的方法来运行程序。
它会上网下载相关的包文件,将会在本地建一个cache目录。
下一次运行时就不用下载了。并且不用root权限。
这个项目的发起者是rox的作者,我感觉很有意思!
(不过,我觉得这也不是他的新发明,我以前在书上见过说ms.NET的想法就是这样的。用户不用知道.pdf用什么程序打开,只要单纯双击打开就可以了,第一次运行时系统会上网下载acroread并在后台安装,片刻后即可阅读pdf文档了。
)
"依赖关系"这个linux臭名招著的问题有望完全解决!
