Package: Host-package builder
System name: hostpkg
This package does NOT want to apply for inclusion in the GNU project

This project allows to build packages that can be used to reproducibly install 
a machine.  Machine profiles can inherit other profiles.  CVS is used to keep 
an history and allow to work on a specific profile in the profiles tree, 
possibly impacting ancestor profiles, without breaking anything else in other 
profiles that would share those ancestors.

Currently debian packages can be produced, but the architecture is flexible 
enough to integrate with any other packaging system.

This work was done by myself when working for Logatique, and is now to be 
released under the GPL.
