This will create the directory `linux-package` containing all the files need to run kitty. kitty can be run using
This will install kitty into the directory `linux-package`. You can run kitty
with `linux-package/bin/kitty`. All the files needed to run kitty will be in
`linux-package/lib/kitty`. The terminfo file will be installed into
`linux-package/share/terminfo`. Simply copy these files into `/usr` to install
kitty. In other words, `linux-package` is the staging area into which kitty is
installed. You can choose a different staging area, by passing the `--prefix`
argument to `setup.py`.
```
python3 linux-package
```
The `linux-package` directory can be renamed and moved anywhere on the
filesystem, it is self contained. So simply create a launcher script named
`/usr/bin/kitty` that calls `python3 /path/to/the/installed/linux-package/directory`.
You should also create a second package named kitty-terminfo that installs the
file `linux-package/terminfo/x/xterm-kitty` into `/usr/share/terminfo` (or
whatever location your distribution uses for terminfo files). Make the main
kitty package depend on `kitty-terminfo`. This allows users to install the
terminfo file on servers into which they ssh, without needing to install all of
kitty.
You should probably split kitty into two packages, `kitty-terminfo` that
installs the terminfo file and `kitty` that installs the main program.
This allows users to install the terminfo file on servers into which they ssh,
without needing to install all of kitty.
