## Detailed Description

An InstallPackage item is a product of the type `archiver.archive` that has a dependency on the archiver module. It is used to produce an archive from a set of installable files.

Consider the following example project:

     Project {
         CppApplication {
             name: "myapp"
             Depends { name: "mylib" }
             files: ["main.cpp"]
             Group {
                 fileTagsFilter: product.type
                 qbs.install: true
                 qbs.installDir: "bin"
             }
         }
         DynamicLibrary {
             name: "mylib"
             files: ["mylib.cpp"]
             Group {
                 name: "public headers"
                 files: ["mylib.h"]
                 qbs.install: true
                 qbs.installDir: "include"
             }
             Group {
                 fileTagsFilter: product.type
                 qbs.install: true
                 qbs.installDir: "lib"
             }
         }

         InstallPackage {
             archiver.type: "tar"
             name: "tar-package"
             Depends { name: "myapp" }
             Depends { name: "mylib" }
         }
     }

Building the product `"tar-package"` on a Unix system will result in a tar file with these contents:

     include/mylib.h
     lib/libmylib.so
     bin/myapp
