What is drakx used for

Our software/drakx can be confusing, because it is used for the creation of

1. drakx-installer-binaries
   • (ie the stage1 binary)
2. drakx-installer-images
   • (ie the whole stage1 image generated from the stage1 binaries + system)
3. drakx-installer-stage2
   • (the stage2)
4. drakxtools.
   

When updating something there, the correct NEWS file needs to be edited:

• drakx/mdk-stage1/NEWS => drakx-installer-binaries
• drakx/images/NEWS => drakx-installer-images
• drakx/perl-install/install/NEWS => drakx-installer-stage2
• drakx/perl-install/NEWS => drakxtools
