Generates a self-extracting compressed tar archive

makeself

历史

项目历史与用法

makeself is a portable shell-script tool that creates self-extracting compressed tar archives for Unix-like systems. The generated file looks like a shell script, often using a `.run` or `.sh` suffix, and embeds both an archive and the startup command that should run after extraction.

项目历史

The official README says makeself was written by Stéphane Peter and is maintained in portable Bourne-shell style so that both the generator and generated archives can run across Unix variants. Its design is deliberately simple: prepend a shell stub to a tar archive, extract into a temporary directory or chosen target, run a script, and clean up.

The project is historically tied to Loki Software's Linux game installers. The official site points readers to Loki Setup, notes that Stéphane Peter co-authored it, and recommends the `.run` suffix introduced by some Loki-era makeself archives. That gave makeself a visible role in the Linux commercial game and driver distribution era before distribution-native packages covered every case.

采用历史

makeself stayed useful because it requires little from the target system beyond a shell, tar, and a supported compressor. The README lists examples such as Id Software game installers and patches, Loki game patches, NVIDIA Linux drivers, Google Earth for Linux, VirtualBox Linux installers, and the makeself distribution itself.

The GitHub repository shows continued maintenance, releases, and a broad contributor history. Newer releases added compression options, archive inspection flags, checksums, CI-friendly usage, and portability fixes while preserving the old package-maintainer promise: ship one executable-ish installer file without a native package repository.

使用方式

A common invocation is `makeself.sh archive_dir file_name label startup_script [script_args]`. Generated archives support options such as `--list`, `--check`, `--target`, `--noexec`, `--keep`, and `--tar`, which makes them inspectable and scriptable in package and release automation.

为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Package nerds care about makeself because it occupies the gray zone between tarballs and native packages. It is not a dependency solver or package manager, but it is a common vendor distribution format that package maintainers often need to unpack, audit, repack, or replace with distro-native recipes.

时间线

1990s-2000s: Loki-style `.run` archives popularize self-extracting shell installers for Linux games and applications.
2010: The official GitHub repository is created.
2025: GitHub lists makeself v2.7.1 as a release.
2026: The official repository remains maintained with thousands of stars and hundreds of forks.
