This is the reported known working tool set by the Milkymist project.
Currently this does not build on MacOS. It could be a host issue with
the age of the compiler.
When using the set builder and nesting builds prpvide the nested
set builder and build objects with copies of the master defaults.
Python's variable sharing was sharing a single set of defaults
across all build sets and this resulted in popluted configurations.
Autoconf hard codes paths into itself. This change is a first
pass at allowing a clean environment to let automake build. The
ability to 'make install DESTDIR=xxx' autoconf then use it to
build automake needs a clean environment. The purpose is to
allow a prefix that needs root without building and packaging
when root.
Add URL and summary to the info helpers. Fix the package get_info and
allow infos to be appended to. This lets a summary be on more than
one line.
Fix the %{?} expansion logic so %{?macro} expands to the macro if it
exists.
The git module allows basic access to git. Hosts are now required
to provide git support.
The defaults module now returns options as a list split on '='.
The RPM spec file will return value for %{?macro:value} if the
macro is defined. This means you need to:
%if %something
%define macro 1
%else
%undefine macro
%endif
which means you have to have more complex tests to check for the macro
and its value. Therefore we support defined as true and defined and
0 as false.
Building on Windows showed the --enable-plugin was being set yet
it was disabled. The code was just checking if the macro was defined
and not actually testing the value. The value is now being tested
and it needs to be true to succeed.
By default the Source Builder now directly installs in the prefix and
does not create tar files. You need to supply options to create build
set level tar files and/or package level tar files.
