I am trying to distribute portable code on both Windows and Linux, in a sane manner, so it will be able to pull its dependencies recursively, etc (basically what yum is doing with RPM). All that is needed is downloading and unpacking archives, and doing dependency resolution recursively. From what you say, I understand that yum is neither flexible enough, nor truly multiplatform. Does anybody know any other utility that does this? rpm and yum should be able to run under windows with cygwin. If your applications are just files and directories, and writes nothing to registry, it might be possible to use yum. The big question is, are you willing to have the overhead of (possibly) over 100 MB just to have a package management system. Something like ipkg (which is smaller) might be more suitable.
