This branch will hold the code for the Google Summer of Code 2006 project "Putting staging under packagemanagement" The Plan: 1) abuse current do_stage methods: do_stage_prepend() { old_dir = STAGING_FOODIR STAGING_FOODIR = new_dir } do_stage_append() { $packagemanager --make-me-a-new-package ${PN}.packageformat $new_dir STAGING_FOODIR = old_dir $packagemanager --install ${PN}.packageformat --dest STAGING_FOODIR } 2) Track down duplicate files across packages 3) compare the hacky packages with the -dev packages intended for the target 4) converge staging packages and -dev packages [...] N) use -dev packages do_stage() { $packagemanager --install ${PN}-dev --dest STAGING_FOODIR }
