Add 'bc' in the mandatory dependencies

2013-07-05T13:30:43+00:00

Since a few kernel releases, having 'bc' installed is mandatory to build the kernel. See commit https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=70730bca1331fc50c3caacaea00439de1325bd6e of the kernel. Since this tool is generally available by default in distributions, and we're unlikely to see version-specific problems with it, we just check for it to be installed in support/dependencies/dependencies.sh.

Revert "dependencies: check that SSL certificates are installed"

2013-05-26T09:14:00+00:00

This reverts commit d66cd067f3dc3d5e2479e1e8c05f24fd82329f7a. SSL certificates are no always installed in /etc/ssl/certs. For example, on CentOS 5.6 the default OpenSSL certificates directory is /etc/pki/tls/certs, and wget can download using https without any problem. Moreover, the existence of /etc/ssl/certs does not guarantee the presence of a CA certificates bundle even on Debian. On my current Debian testing installation the openssl package itself creates an empty /etc/ssl/certs directory. Signed-off-by: Baruch Siach Acked-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

dependencies: check that SSL certificates are installed

2013-03-24T13:00:31+00:00

Some packages are hosted on https:// servers, and wget only works on these if the SSL certificates are installed. For example, downloading the kernel sources from kernel.org requires those SSL certificates to be installed. [Peter: fix typo] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

dependencies: check that a full perl installation is available

2013-03-24T12:57:31+00:00

The host-autoconf build process requires a full Perl installation, or at least a Perl installation that has the Data::Dumper module installed. On a basic Debian system, only 'perl-base' is installed, but Data::Dumper is in the 'perl' package. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

dependencies: test all programs before bailing out

2013-03-24T12:56:45+00:00

The current dependencies code abort as soon as one program is missing. It is quite annoying when multiple programs are missing. Instead, bail out if needed after testing all programs. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

dependencies: remove a few useless mandatory dependencies

2013-03-24T12:51:21+00:00

awk, bison, flex, makeinfo, gettext should be built as dependencies of packages when needed. In practice, even the toolchain build doesn't need any of these, and only a few packages do require them. It is not needed to list gzip and bzip2 since they are already checked through ${DL_TOOLS}: whenever a package needs gzip or bzip2 for its extraction, the dependency is added.
