Packaging hints for binary package distributors

===============================================

Although the source of the bison package comes as a single package,

in distributions of binary packages the installed files should

be split into two packages:

   bison-runtime

        Contents: Runtime libraries and programs.

        Audience: Anyone who wants to run internationalized programs

                  that contain Bison-generated parsers.

   bison

        Contents: Tools and documentation for developers that use Bison.

        Audience: Anyone who wants to develop programs that use parsers.

        Dependencies: requires bison-runtime.

The 'bison-runtime' binary package is much smaller than the 'bison'

binary package.  It should be included in any distribution that

contains localized programs that use the diagnostics contained in

Bison-generated parsers.

If you want to install both packages at the same time, you simply do

at the toplevel directory:

      ./configure

      make

      make install

After installation, the file

      $prefix/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/bison-runtime.mo

belongs to the bison-runtime package; all other installed files belong

to the bison package.
