264	Binary distribution (CPack)	scheusso		"== Outline ==
In order to make Orxonox more attractive to outstanders we need to provide some OS/distribution specific mechanisms to install Orxonox.
We want to be able to distribute Orxonox for the following platforms:
 * Linux:
  * Ubuntu / Debian
  * Gentoo
 * Windows
 * Mac
== Prerequisits ==
In order to be able to accomplish distribution we need to fulfill some prerequisits:
 * Configuration files location: config files should not (at least on linux) be located in the game folder. So we need to change this in our game.
 * external libraries: we need to make clear what exactly our dependencies are.

== Ubuntu / Debian ==
The distribution on these systems will happen by using .deb packages.

== Gentoo ==
The package system of Gentoo uses portage ebuilds to distribute applications. Someone needs to write an ebuild.

== Windows ==
Probably the best method for distribution is to provide either a zip-file or a self-executable installer file.
