# Coding Week 4 Meeting-2
In this eighth meeting questions related to post install generation were asked. This was a short meeting.
## Week 4 Progress
> Version parsing logic implemented.
>
> - VERSION and COMMIT_HASH added to every executables.
> - Installing part is complete except `cli`.
> - Symbolic Links are installing and working fine.
> - Version, Symbolic Links, `VERSION` file generation, `version.php` generation are now more modular and called via a single function for each agent
> - Most dependencies are now moved to single configuration file.
> - Vendor directory generation and installing are now working.
> - To test the current progress, follow the instructions [here](https://github.com/avinal/FOSSology/wiki#test-the-new-system-only-gcc-with-make-and-ninja-tested-for-now)
## Discussions
- **Why all the symbolic links in cli points to** `fo_wrapper`
**script?**
- The `fo_wrapper` script calls the PHP script on the symbolic link
that called the fo_wrapper. It also initializes any requirement
before calling the scripts.
- **How to generate all the other configuration in**
`/usr/local/etc/fossology` **directory?**
- You can find the input files for all these configurations in the
`install/defcon` directory.
- **What are** `OBSOLETEFILES` **in** `www/ui/Makefile` **?**
- They are kept for compatibility purposes. Although they have been
removed in the current versions of FOSSology, if a user installs a
new version on top of an older instance, then we should explicitly
remove those files.
- **I have created a separate folder for generating vendor directory. Is
that okay?**
- Yeah, it should be fine, But it would be better to rename it to
something else. Or even better if moved to *www* itself. Since these
files are used by www.
## Conclusion and Further Plans
- Move `vendor` scripts to `www` directory.
- Implement installing for FOSSology cli.
- Implement installing configuration scripts.
- Finish installation for testing
