Description
The build system should be automated, so that it's as little a pain as possible to make new releases (or why not, nightly builds). This ticket deals with the software: targetted package systems (NSIS, DEB, RPM, etc.) and building scripts thereof, etc.
Yesterday, the discussion started at http://box.godzil.net/pipermail/tigccpp/2008-November/000086.html mentioned InstallJammer? packages as a possible packaging system. Need to investigate further to see whether it's a viable option.

Some work was done in that area: r1328, r1329, r1330, r1331, r1332, r1333, r1334.
(support for cross-compilation, many portability fixes, fix of ticket #27, usage of makeself for binary packages, etc.)
