Michael Shigorin	2f307ffffb	main.mk introduced, lib/*.mk partially rewritten ... 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...	2012-01-02 21:01:09 +02:00
Michael Shigorin	cc8982dd7e	tweaked variable logging ... 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.	2011-11-07 00:01:36 +02:00
Michael Shigorin	30b1aa9be6	toplevel build report now timestamped ... 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.	2011-11-07 00:01:36 +02:00
Michael Shigorin	d5a5941f96	official {distro,ve}/* support ... 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)	2011-11-04 16:54:41 +02:00
