opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta7 ---------------------------- Released: 2014-10-25 Changes in this release: * parse_dep() now correctly parses the "<<" version relation operator. Previously, a version restriction like "(<< 1.21.1-12)" would be parsed into a relationship of " <" and version of "<1.21.1-12", resulting for example in the generation of a few uninstallable packages on ProteanOS. opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta6 ---------------------------- Released: 2014-09-23 Changes in this release: * ob-genchanges and ob-gencontrol now strip newline characters in the "Maintainer" field. * An "optstring" file is installed for use by prokit. * opkbuild's platform option is now -p. * opkbuild now supports -B and -P options to build only architecture- dependent and platform-dependent binary packages, respectively. opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta5 ---------------------------- Released: 2014-05-15 Changes in this release: * ob-checkbuilddeps now sets substitution variables for use in the "Build-Depends" field. * ob-checkbuilddeps now recognizes packages with a status of "install user installed". * ob_arch_is_concerned() and ob_plat_is_concerned() now correctly handle host values of "all" with negated values in package fields. These functions are also now covered by the test suite. opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta4 ---------------------------- Released: 2014-05-13 Changes in this release: * ob_match_plat() now checks for exact platform name matches. This will be necessary to build the linux-libre source package for the dev platform without building linux-image and linux-sysmap binary packages. * ob-installplatconf now correctly installs configuration files without a "/" in their specified destinations. * ob-checkbuilddeps has been implemented. opkbuild now uses its opkg dependency. Package build dependency checking can be disabled using opkbuild's "-d" option. * The default architecture in mksysconf.in is now "amd64-linux-glibc". * NEWS now contains summaries of changes in each released version. * Tests data files are now distributed in released tar archives. opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta3 ---------------------------- Released: 2014-03-07 Changes in this release: * Make ob-genchanges only list .opk files that are built for the host architecture and platform. * Preserve file modification times, owners and groups, and modes in source packages. * Find packaging helpers at run time using helper configuration scripts instead of at build time with configure options. As of version 3.0.0, opkhelper provides such a helper configuration script. opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta2 ---------------------------- Released: 2014-01-19 Changes in this release: * Fix minor issues in opkbuild and ob-applypatches that occur when updating the "source" targets of some packages. * Make ob-genchanges perform substitutions in package descriptions. * Make ob-installdocs support patterns in *.pkg/docs. opkbuild version 3.0.0-beta1 ---------------------------- Released: 2013-09-07 Changes in this release: * Fix ob-applypatches to work with BusyBox patch. * Implement ob-genchanges. * Remove _ob_local() and _ob_return() kludges and use the built-in local utility instead. opkbuild version 3.0.0-alpha5 ----------------------------- Released: 2013-06-16 Changes in this release: * Escape single quotes in substitution variable values. * Exit on failure to parse package metadata. * Fix "Bad binary package name" warning when there are no binary package metadata directories. * Fix output of changelog parsing errors. * Set "Host-Arch" and "Host-Plat" substitution variables, which were recently added to the SPF 2.0 specification. * Make build system non-recursive and faster. * Centralize build system logic into the top-level input makefile to make the build system smaller and more easily maintainable. * Distribute the "mksysconf.in" input makefile. Previously this was missing from the tar archives. * Better handle unrecognized options to configure. * Fix some issues with fakeroot option handling. opkbuild version 3.0.0-alpha4 ----------------------------- Released: 2012-11-16 Changes in this release: * Make ob-unpacksource not consider a lack of sources to be an error. * Support the use of multiple build helpers. * Move _ob_dep_arch_is_concerned() and _ob_dep_plat_is_concerned() to the public API. * Support negation in binary package "Architecture" fields. * Optionally reduce platforms in ob_get_binary_packages(). * Make ob-unpacksource work on tar archives without explicit entries for directories. * Don't print an error when there's no substvars file. * Set an "OPK_TOOL_PREFIX" environment variable (needed for packages that use kbuild). * Remove code related to the table of upstream build system architectures. * Replace testsetup.sh with a slightly better "mksysconf" makefile. * Add some error handling to opkbuild. * Reduce platforms for OPK_PACKAGES. opkbuild version 3.0.0-alpha3 ----------------------------- Released: 2012-10-26 Changes in this release: * Fix the creation of source package documentation directories. * Fix license information in opkbuild and configure output messages and testsetup.sh source code. * Add the build helper directory to the beginning, rather than the end, of PATH. This should prevent the unintended use of old versions of build helper utilities. * Fix and improve ob-installplatconf. * Reduce binary package relationship fields in ob-gencontrol. * Support substitution variables in control field values. * Fix quotes in the "install" target of man/Makefile.in. * Better support multiple invocations of ob-unpacksource and ob-installdocs. * Reduce platform specifiers in dependency strings. * Support comments in control files. opkbuild version 3.0.0-alpha2 ----------------------------- Released: 2012-10-16 Changes in this release: * Don't rely on POSIX-conformant parsing of makefile comments. * Make ob-gencontrol write "Platform" and "Maintainer" fields. * Fix names of opk files written by ob-buildopk. * Get an "Uploader", not "Maintainer", field from SPF 2.0 changelogs. * Make testsetup.sh print informational and error messages. * Additionally license everything for use under the terms of the GNU GPL version 2.0. opkbuild version 3.0.0-alpha1 ----------------------------- Released: 2012-10-11 Changes in this release: * Split the core distribution build system into its own package. * Provide a fairly well-designed library, libopkbuild, with an API that is to be stable and versioned. * Rewrite build system. * Internationalize messages. * Write unit tests for some library functions. * Support source package formats and distribution metadata through plugins. * Support SPF 2.0. * Heavily refactor utilities. * Set up package build helpers (currently only opkhelper-3.0). Older Versions -------------- opkbuild was split from opkhelper on 2012-09-04, after opkhelper versions 1.0.0 and 2.0.0 (unreleased). See "NEWS.opkhelper" for changes in released versions of opkhelper before opkbuild was split into its own package. Copyright Information --------------------- Copyright (C) 2012-2014 Patrick "P. J."
