icu: speed up host build

2013-03-10T22:15:58+00:00

The host build of icu doesn't need to build everything, so we can add a few more --disable- options to save a little bit of build time. On a fast build server, this bring the host icu build from 2m28.517s to 2m5.192s. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

icu: don't build object files twice

2013-03-10T22:15:52+00:00

When passed --enable-static and --enable-shared, icu will generate both a shared and a static version of its libraries. However, in order to do so, it builds each and every object file twice: once with -fPIC (for the shared library), and once without -fPIC (for the static library). While admittedly building -fPIC for a static library generates a slightly suboptimal code, this is what all the autotools-based project are doing. They build each object file once, and they use it for both the static and shared libraries. icu builds the object files for the shared library as .o files, and the object files for static library as .ao files. By simply changing the suffix of object files used for static libraries to ".o", we tell icu to use the ones built for the shared library (i.e, with -fPIC), and avoid the double build of icu. On a fast build server, this brings the target icu build from 3m41.302s down to 1m43.926s (approximate numbers: some other builds are running on the system at the same time).

icu: workaround toolchain bugs

2013-03-10T22:15:29+00:00

Many of ARM Sourcery CodeBench toolchain have a bug when compiling icu's translit.cpp source file. The bug is trigerred when there is a combination of "-W -Wall" and "-Os", and causes an internal compiler error. The bug has been reported to Mentor Graphics. Even though it is clearly a toolchain bug, having a workaround for it is trivial in this case. So it will avoid our users falling into this internal compiler error, and allow our autobuilders to test more packages using this Sourcery CodeBench toolchain.

package: use _CONFIG_SCRIPTS wherever possible

2013-02-08T21:34:26+00:00

Use the _CONFIG_SCRIPTS mechanism in all packages for which it does all what the package was doing. A few packages, like libxslt, are for now left out, since they need some additional fixup (for example a fixup of includedir).
