ProteanOS Development Kit version 1.2.0 --------------------------------------- Released: ????-??-?? Changes in this release: * A basic "/etc/group" file is now generated on ProteanOS systems. * "prokit install" now only throws a "Directory ... exists" error if the specified root directory is not empty. * "prokit install" in the ProteanOS profile now only copies "/etc/resolv.conf" and "/etc/hostname" from the host system if the platform is "dev". It also now does not enable system services on the "dev" platform. On other platforms, it enables services and sets the hostname to "proteanos". * "prokit install", "prokit shell", "prokit opkg", and "prokit build" now accept either a block device file name or a directory name (previously only accepting the latter). A block device is automatically mounted and unmounted on a mount point managed by prokit. * Two bugs related to gzip-compressed package feed index files have been fixed. * ProteanOS package feed index files are now downloaded in compressed form. * A list of valid ProteanOS architectures and platforms is no longer hardcoded. This list could become outdated between prokit versions or even ProteanOS suites. * A list of ProteanOS package archive mirrors is no longer hardcoded. Instead, the list is fetched from the ProteanOS files site as needed. * A new "prokit installer-pc" command has been added to install a PC system onto a block device. ProteanOS Development Kit version 1.1.0 --------------------------------------- Released: 2014-10-08 Changes in this release: * The previously missing prokit-install(8) manual page is now distributed and installed. * Some logic of "prokit install" has been simplified as ProteanOS packages now have the necessary data files and control fields. * "prokit build" now parses substvars files without errors. * The current working directory is bind mounted within the isolated file system environment and used as the working directory for the "prokit shell" and "prokit opkg" commands. * Compatibility with older versions of opkbuild has been dropped. Before running "prokit build", make sure your ProteanOS system has version 3.0.0~beta6-1 or later of the opkbuild package. * The list of mirrors has been updated. Thanks to Morten 'Jobbe' Jakobsen for providing another mirror. * Session management has been added to allow multiple instances of prokit to run simultaneously. The first instance started will mount the basic file systems, and the last instance exited will unmount them. A mutex is used to eliminate race conditions on changes to the sessions pool. * Whitespace in arguments to "prokit shell" and "prokit build" is now preserved. * Signals are handled during active sessions with callbacks for the "prokit opkg" and "prokit build" commands, to ensure that the isolated file system environment is left in a clean state when a signal like SIGINT (Ctrl+C) is received. ProteanOS Development Kit version 1.0.0 --------------------------------------- Released: 2014-09-02 Changes in this release: * A new "prokit opkg" command has been added. * A new "prokit build" command has been added. * "prokit shell" now accepts optional command arguments. * Manual pages for prokit commands that require superuser privileges have been moved to section 8. ProteanOS Development Kit version 0.1.0 --------------------------------------- Released: 2014-08-26 This is the initial release of the ProteanOS Development Kit, in development since 2013-10-22. This is a preview release for testing, providing only the "install" and "shell" action commands. Currently, prokit approximately matches miniprokit in features, though the latter is still recommended for normal use. Copyright Information --------------------- Copyright (C) 2014 Patrick "P. J."
