Linux support missing from cross-platform? about swiftplate HOT 8 CLOSED

Closing, with PR #20

@idcrook Thanks for the very detailed issue! Super awesome 🚀 I'd love for SwiftPlate to support Linux as well! 👍

One thing is that not all libraries can support Linux (for example, if you're building a framework that depends on UIKit or some other Apple platforms-only API). So we should probably ask if the user wants to support Linux when running SwiftPlate - and if so perform the changes you listed above to the project. What do you think?

I think that makes a lot of sense. 👍 I hadn't tried all the SwiftPM init types (current 3.0.1 bundled swift package has (type: empty|library|executable|system-module)), but it already has a command line switch/option to guard it. I think being prompted about it makes sense. 🎉

Alright, so let's go with that! 👍 Let me know if you want to do the implementation as well 😉

I'll look into it in a day or two if I can.

@idcrook Awesome, no preasure - just post here if you start working on it - otherwise I (or someone else) might pick it up - would be a great feature to have 😄

I created PR #20 that add the Linux library testing support. However, there a a few caveats outlined in the PR.

@idcrook Can we close this now that #20 has been merged? 🙂
