support/scripts: add gen-manual-lists.py

Script generating the target and host package tables, and the deprecated stuff list as well. These tables and lists are generated parsing the Config.in files.

support: add kconfiglib python module

Signed-off-by: Samuel Martin [yann.morin.1998@free.fr: rename readme so it is obvious it's about kconfiglib] Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

packages: add ability for packages to create users

2013-04-25T20:56:42Z

Packages that install daemons may need those daemons to run as a non-root, or an otherwise non-system (eg. 'daemon'), user. Add infrastructure for packages to create users, by declaring the FOO_USERS variable that contain a makedev-syntax-like description of the user(s) to add. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Cc: Samuel Martin Cc: Cam Hutchison Cc: Thomas Petazzoni Acked-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

support/kconfig: use kconfig-provided way of setting the CONFIG_ prefix

2013-04-21T21:33:11Z

It's now been a while since it has been possible to build the kconfig parser to understand a prefix other than CONFIG_, and even no prefix at all, by setting the CONFIG_ macro (#define) at biuld time. Just use that, insted of patching, it will make it easier for us in the future. Our patches have been refreshed at the same time. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

support/kconfig: upgrade to 3.9-rc2

2013-04-11T07:30:39Z

Our kconfig code is updated to the version of kernel 3.9-rc2. No major issues during the migration, except: * Some conflicts when applying 03-change-config-option-prefix.patch due to upstream kernel changes. * The need of adding a new patch, 15-fix-qconf-moc-rule.patch, to fix the make rule that generates the moc file for the Qt-based interface.

dependencies: check that SSL certificates are installed

2013-03-24T13:00:31Z

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

2013-03-24T12:57:31Z

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

2013-03-24T12:56:45Z

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
