jhalfs TODO
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
(Work for almost all this issues is in progress on the experimental branch)
|
|
|
|
CODE STYLE
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
- To use the same coding style in all modules. The current used
|
|
for HLFS module (colors, error-handling, etc) look a good starting
|
|
point for me, with two notes (to be discussed):
|
|
|
|
- Bash code: to use two-spaces indentation (no tabs).
|
|
- Makefile code: to use eight-characters tabs.
|
|
|
|
- To set the "Date" and "Id" svn:keywords properties on all files
|
|
setting the "Id" key on the header of each file and using the
|
|
"Date" key when needed (like in the -v output of jhalfs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
MASTER SCRIPT (work in progress on the experimental branch)
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
- Make jhalfs a "master script" that will control and run each
|
|
book's module. When doing that reestructuration we coulud to change
|
|
the tool's name, if wanted.
|
|
|
|
- Common code for all modules should be placed in this master script.
|
|
|
|
- Common configuration options should be placed in a master configuration
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
- The LFS, CLFS and HLFS modules should be exclusives. I.e., when
|
|
one is called the others must be ignored.
|
|
|
|
- The BLFS moudule should can be called in conjunction with any of
|
|
LFS, CLFS or HLFS modules.
|
|
|
|
- Addapt the Makefile to install all modules system-wide.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LFS MODULE (some of this is applicable also to CLFS and HLFS modules)
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
- To move the LFS module to their own subdir.
|
|
|
|
- To fix the now missing locales installation needed by testsuites
|
|
in Chapter05 Glibc.
|
|
|
|
- Chapter05 testsuites should be optionals. Run by default Chapter06
|
|
testsuites only.
|
|
|
|
- Fix the unpack code to don't hang when both the bz2 and gz formats
|
|
of the same package are founds in the sources dir.
|
|
|
|
- To add a switch to build the BLFS module dependencies at the end of
|
|
the LFS build, that is, wget and sudo. SVN and libxslt aren't needed
|
|
at this stage due that the BLFS book could be downloaded and parser
|
|
at the same time that the LFS book. Plus links or lynx to read the
|
|
(to be) generated BLFS HTML pages and, maybe, gpm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CLFS MODULE
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- Start the module creation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
HLFS MODULE
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- To review and fix, if needed, the bash and XSL code.
|
|
|
|
- Be sure that the book's XML code is in a sane state.
|
|
|
|
- To do several build test for both Glibc and uClibc based systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BLFS MODULE
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- The SourceForge download links don't work.
|
|
|
|
- To fix files creation using sudo. Comment from Ag Hatzim:
|
|
|
|
Commands, that using cat with sudo, to redirect the output to
|
|
certain files that users have no write access, will fail.
|
|
|
|
Eg. fcron.
|
|
|
|
#-------------------------------#
|
|
(~/jhablfs)sudo cat >> /etc/syslog.conf << "EOF"
|
|
# Begin fcron addition to /etc/syslog.conf
|
|
|
|
cron.* -/var/log/cron.log
|
|
|
|
# End fcron addition
|
|
EOF
|
|
zsh: permission denied: /etc/syslog.conf
|
|
#-------------------------------#
|
|
|
|
Since the shell is doing the redirection (man bash -REDIRECTION),
|
|
*before* the command is executed, sudo can not see the redirection,
|
|
so a new shell is needed for sudo to execute the actual command.
|
|
|
|
Like so, the previous command should be something like this.
|
|
|
|
#-------------------------------#
|
|
(~/jhablfs)sudo sh -c "cat >> /etc/syslog.conf << "EOF"
|
|
# Begin fcron addition to /etc/syslog.conf
|
|
|
|
cron.* -/var/log/cron.log
|
|
|
|
# End fcron addition
|
|
EOF"
|
|
#-------------------------------#
|
|
|
|
- Figure out how to handle Perl modules installation and other pages
|
|
that have commands to install more that one package (e.g., Gnat in GCC
|
|
Java-bin in Java, sane-backends and sane-frotnends in Sane, etc)
|
|
|
|
- Figure out how to handle alternative dependencies. I.e.,
|
|
XFRee86 versus Xorg.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OTHERS
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
- Add a Cunstomization file discussing how to hack the generated scripts
|
|
and Makefiles, using the Cracklib support for Shadow in LFS as an example.
|
|
|
|
- To add support for ICA/farce? Can be done as a separate module?
|
|
|
|
- To add support for package management??? NO for this tool. Maybe in the
|
|
under development new alfs tool.
