PkgForge - The Package Forge build farm system
This documentation refers to PkgForge version 1.4.8
Package Forge (PkgForge) is a build farm system. A framework is provided to allow multiple platforms (e.g. Redhat and Debian Linux as well as MacOSX) to build binary software packages from the same source packages.
The build jobs are registered and scheduled via the Registry which is based around a PostgreSQL database. See PkgForge::Registry for details.
The submitted jobs are processed and built using server daemons. See PkgForge::Server for details.
There is an, optional, web interface which provides access to the information stored in the Registry. See PkgForge::Web for details.

This is the list of platforms on which we have tested this software. We expect this software to work on any Unix-like platform which is supported by Perl.
