2011-02-21tar-replacement-native: Add a target to replace the default tarRichard Purdie
tar < 1.24 has symlink issues where extracting a tar archive containing a symlink to a directory where that symlink already exists will cause the symlink to be dereferenced. If that target doesn't exist tar can fail with a permissions error. Since we need to be able to do this for packages containing symlinks like xorg-minimal-fonts and eglibc, we have to ensure a tar 1.25 is available early in the build process.

2010-08-27Major layout change to the packages directoryRichard Purdie
Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more information about the classifications used. The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes" as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to people and has many different meanings. Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as they're no longer actively used or maintained.
