As suggested by Scott on the mailing list, i open this ticket to submit a
GUI app to install local hpkg files:
I made this little and simple app to install local HPKG files, which is
based on TrackerScript:
https://github.com/HaikuArchives/TrackerScript (which is released under
MIT license).
Differently from pkgman, this is a GUI app.
So, If core developers think that would be useful improve and/or include
this app in Haiku, i attach a zip archive to this ticket, an archive which
contain the HPKG file for the installer (move under
/boot/home/config/packages), and the modified source code (for now is only
possible build this app with gcc2 compiler, but this app properly works
under gcc2h Haiku and should also work in gcc4h).
I also guess that this app could be placed under system (to be treated as
system apps) by replacing reference, in the source code,
from"B_USER_APPS_DIRECTORY" to "B_SYSTEM_APPS_DIRECTORY".
