Hey I am working on an application that pulls various packages from the i= nternet and installs them under Linux, since autopackage is dead easy to ge= t applications installed with it was the first package format to be support= ed, now however I am looking into how to uninstall packages and autopackage= is still rather simple, if your an intelligent human being. My program kin= da sucks that way since it's neither ;). I have a package file, I save the name of this package file to a text file,= however I wish to extract the short name from the autopackage archive prio= r to installation so my program can save the short name in the text file sh= ould the need to uninstall arise. How might I achieve this?
