Dealing with makeself.sh distributed software
by felipeperona from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6FRFV)
Hello all,
I have a question regarding installing software distributed as a "makeself" archive. In this case is MPLABX v6.15, but my question is more general.
Is there a way to convert it to a Slackware package? I remember some time ago having read about installing it in a fake folder tree and then converting that tree into a package, but I lost the reference.
How do you deal with these cases? is there a tool I can use?
Best,
Felipe.-
