Simon Howard 09a1ff9b8c Add support for package groups. 
This conveniently allows a whole set of packages to be installed from
a single command, without needing an actual package to be built that
depends on them all.

README.md

Package files are shell scripts which are expected to set the following variables to describe how to build the package.

  • PACKAGE_TYPE: has a value of either native or target. The default is target. The variable controls whether the package is built for the target system when doing cross-compiles, or whether it is part of the build (native) system and just used to build tools as part of the build process. The package type determines whether the result is installed into install or install.native.

  • PACKAGE_VERSION: version number of the package. If set, this is appended to the package name (ie. filename) to make the expected build directory name.

  • PACKAGE_URL: URL specifying where to download a tar.gz file containing the package to build.

  • IS_TAR_BOMB: "Well-formed" .tar files contain a single directory, the name of which matches the name of the .tar file. Files which are not constructed in this way are called "tar bombs". Setting this variable to true indicates that the .tar file found at PACKAGE_URL is a tar bomb; for safety, the file will be extracted in a directory with the expected name.

  • GIT_URL: URL to git clone this package from.

  • GIT_BRANCH: The Git branch to clone and build from the remote repository. Defaults is master.

  • PACKAGE_INSTALLED_TOOL: name of the tool that is built and installed by this package. If this variable is set, the tool name is used to determine whether the package is installed, by checking PATH.

  • PKGCONFIG_NAME: name of the pkg-config .pc file installed by this package. If this variable is set, it is used to determine whether the package is installed, by invoking pkg-config.

  • PACKAGE_CONFIGURE_OPTS: extra options which will be passed to the configure script when building the package.

  • DEPENDENCIES: a list of packages that this package depends upon. When building this package, these packages will be recursively built and installed automatically if they are not already installed.

Advanced builds

Complicated packages can require custom build steps. The following functions can therefore be overridden in the package file in exceptional circumstances:

  • prebuild_setup: define a function with this name to execute special setup commands in the root of a package just before it is built. An example is that it is possible to run autoreconf to run the autotools pipeline and generate expected scripts and outputs.

  • do_build: the function which is invoked to build the package. The default implementation just runs ./configure followed by make (essentially).

  • do_install: the function which is invoked to install the package. The default implementation just runs make install.
