Hi,
Just started playing with jhablfs (done two successful jhalfs builds so
far... magic! Many thanks)
and I was curious, at the moment the generated makefile doesn't seem
able to cope with 'alternative' dependencies (apart from a few other
niggles I'll submit patches for later).
For example:
imagemagick: xfree86 xorg
Isn't an ideal situation. Are alternative package choices defined in the
source xml or do these need hand defining somewhere?
Would the ideal solution be that automatic dependencies don't get
fulfilled where there exist alternatives (perhaps a hyrbrid target
"xfree86-xorg" that produces an error when invoked) but building either
of the xorg or xfree86 targets would then satisfy this dependency and
create a hybrid xfree86-xorg file.
Are there any other 'alternative' dependencies in the blfs book other
than the obvious xorg/xfree?
Regards,
