3. Information about the makeself package on openSuSE Tumbleweed

Information for package makeself:
---------------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss
Name : makeself
Version : 2.5.0-1.2
Arch : noarch
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 80.8 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : makeself-2.5.0-1.2.src
Upstream URL : https://makeself.io/
Summary : Make self-extractable archives on Unix
Description :
Small shell script that generates a self-extractable tar.gz archive from a
directory. The resulting file appears as a shell script (many of those
have a .run suffix), and can be launched as is. The archive will then
uncompress itself to a temporary directory and an optional arbitrary
command will be executed (for example an installation script).
This is pretty similar to archives generated with WinZip Self-Extractor in
the Windows world. Makeself archives also include checksums for integrity
self-validation (CRC and/or MD5 checksums).
