It's been broken for years, and nobody has complained, so I'd say
it is not useful. If a user wants to use a mirror instead of upstream,
better use a wget-list directly on this server...
Our gen-special.sh transforms a dependency on compound packages
(xorg7-*) on a dependency on the list of packages. This generates
a lot of trials when removing circular dependencies, because if the
dependency on xorg7-* is optional, all packages in the list are tried
in turn, while it is sure that anyway the dependecy must be eliminated.
If the dependency is only on the last package, the circular dep
is eliminated at first try.
If the shell exits with an error, teardown is not run in target
chroot, which may lead to unwanted effects, such as preventing
unmounting the $BUILD_DIR. Tell make to ignore the error.
Now that devices.sh can be run even if the fs are already mounted
all the targets after mounting the virtual kernel fs can depend
on "devices". This way, if for some reason a partial build is
restarted after a reboot, the virtual kernel fs are automatically
re-mounted.
Fixes#1737
Those scripts could only be run once, because mount errors out
if it tries to mount an already mounted fs (or unmount a non
mounted fs). This changes generation of the scripts so that
any mount is preceded with "mountpoint -q || ", and any umount
is preceded with "mountpoint -q && ".
If the kernel-config file is not up to date (missing options or
whatever), the kernel "make" will hang, waiting for input. So
run "make oldconfig" explicitly, with a timeout.
Fixes: #1736
gen-special.sh uses the list of files and md5 from the
cat instructions to generate an xml page for each of
the individual components. Until now, there were no commented
out component, so gen-special.sh was not prepared to handle
comments. Now, it removes lines containing comments.
We use grep -l ^"${otherlink[*]"\$ to find parentNode, since the
parentNode is the only file with a link line that matches. Problem
is that sometimes the priority line may match too. This makes a
parentNode variable containing several lines, and when redirecting
to $parentNode, creates those "ambiguous redirect" messages.
Fix: use a loop, and only grep on the first line of each file.
Add several packages that shouldn't be removed when doing dependency
checking, two of which are actually not in lfs, but needed for
script: porg tzdata sudo wget
Add an XSL stylesheet for listing packages in LFS. Those are
not listed anywhere else, but they are considered dependencies of
everything, so should never be erased.
For outputting DESTDIR=, we need to test whether the text contains
"make". But when it contains "qmake" (or any different word containing
"make" but not exactly "make), we don't want to output anything more
than the text. So strengthen the test.
We output text()[1], literal (literally), text(2). This does
not work if there are several <literal> tags. Change it to
outputing preceding-sibling::text()[1], literal for each
literal tag, then output text()[last()] (which works also
when there are no literal tag, so it removes a choose.
For additional downloads, the normal book layout is a <bridgehead>
containing "Additional Downloads" followed by one or more
<itemizedlist>, one for each file to download. But on some pages,
there are several <bridgehead>, each followed by one or more
<itemizedlist>. So we have to check that only the <itemizedlist>
correponding to the current <bridgehead> are treated. Otherwise,
the download code may be generated more than once. This imposes
that no other bridgehead is inserted between the one containing
"Additional" (or in some case "Recommended/Optional Download") and
the <itemizedlist>.
Instead of having them inside the Makefile, which implies editing
them (automatically), which is not robust if anything changes:
it got broken when a test for a mountpoint was added...
Presently, when the <node>groupxx file is created, we copy "a"
lines from <node> to <node>groupxx (changing "a" to "b") and
we remove all the lines containing the runtime dependency from
<node>. This may not always be what we want: for example, a
dependency can be both "required at runtime" and "optional for
tests". We should keep this information when cleaning the nodes.
Only when removing circular paths should the optional tie be broken
if necessary.
When not downloading packages, the function "get_sources" returns
early because it begins with:
[ "$GETPKG" = y ] || return
The problem is that in this case it returns with an exit code
inherited from the last executed instruction, which is the
test (and therefore "false"). The solution is to change to
return 0.
- update versions and instructions in packageManager.xml.pacman.
Also remove the pages for old books.
- Fix packInstall.sh.pacman, so that restarting after a failure
is possible
- Change LFS/lfs.xsl so that destdir install use symlinks for
/lib, /sbin, and /bin. Remove also absolete commands for old
books
- fix gcc script in book parser
LFS/lfs.xsl does not generate correct commands for stripping if
STRIP=n. LFS/master.sh had already been corrected to not run
stripping if STRIP=n, but only for the first pass. Do this for
all passes.
