There is at least one known deficiency for mkimage-profiles:
build.log will be truncated if verbose mode is enabled and
hasher version is lower than 1.3.22.
The check is done here since it's where the logging is arranged,
and doing it in image.in/Makefile would result in the warning
about log-truncating software being truncated by the said software.
Thanks Max Kosmach for reporting this inobviousity.
The former toplevel Makefile is now toplevel main.mk;
this change allows for multi-target, multi-arch processing
in the current toplevel Makefile.
As the "build" symlink semantics change quite considerably
when one is doing bulk builds (several pruned builddirs might
be useful for comparison), BUILDDIR is now much more likely
to be recreated: the cases when it will persist are when it's
either a single-image build or when the prefix hasn't changed.
There are some more or less subtle bugfixes and enhancements
all over the map as well.
Done within 20111230..20120102 timeframe, actually...
Preferences might be somewhat interesting too: while the official
ones shouldn't influence the build result at all, there's no whitelist
so all kinds of weirdness can be stuffed into local config in principle.
That should be diagnosable at least.
Thanks torabora@ for yet again seemingly obvious feature request
which strangely managed to evade implementation before.
On an afterthought, mass builds would suggest too much coffee
instead of a progress indicator -- so implemented the latter.
NB: the actual downstream-make-calling rule would expand the "naive"
$(shell date) too early: the rule is evaluated before starting its
execution, and as it's the time consuming one the shell evaluation
was in need, not make's. The result is less generally available
(needs to be double quoted and won't work inside e.g. awk programs)
but way more precise.
This is quite a large-scale change since mkimage-profiles got used to
baking distributions over the last year, and virtual environments are
quite different, so e.g. image.in/Makefile had to be split in two with
the main part of it moved into features.in/iso/lib/.
Short overview:
- features.in/Makefile: lib/ support
(supporting VE images requires dynamic modifications
to image.in/Makefile before starting the build;
the most natural way to achieve that seems to use
features mechanism along with makefile include dir)
- packaging format related part moved into features.in/pack
(should be better prepared for diversity either)
- features.in/iso renamed to features.in/build-distro
- features.in/ve renamed to features.in/build-ve
+ NB: these could not be merged as e.g. features.in/build
due to completely different script hooks
- lib/image.mk renamed to lib/build.mk
- image, config, log postprocessing moved downstream
- added a sort of a topping in the form of lib/sugar.mk
- assorted style fixups (like ifeq usage)
- clean.mk: reliability fix (the problem was observed by Oleg Ivanov
and me too but finally it did get the attention quantum)
- reviewed, updated and extended docs
+ QUICKSTART: should be[come] a step-by-step guide
(thanks Leo-sp50 for prodiving feedback)
