Hi,
I have made the following major changes to the Distro Constructor code:
1) Split the previous giant "postrun_exec" file in the
slimcd_post_processing.tar into multiple
files, each representing the postinstall script that they are pulled
out from.
The one giant "postrun_exec" file doesn't work, because if there's
an error executing
one of the "postinstall" scripts, the whole postrun_exec script will
exit, and a lot
of postrun processing will be skipped. With this change, each
postinstall script from SVR4
packages that has postrun is placed into a file in the
src/postrun_scripts directory,
and the src/postrun_scripts/exec_postrun script will invoke each of
the scripts in
that directory. To ease the generation when new builds of Solaris
come out, I created
a convince script, and put it under the tools directory called
"extract_postrun".
2) Getting rid of the previous slimcd_post_processing.tar file. All the
files that were previously
in that tar file are now moved into "src", except the post_process
file. The content of
the post_process file are turned into a function
in **build_dist.lib. The tar file is no longer
necessary because the live media code is so closely tight with the
rest of the distro constructor
code right now. Our previous assumption to make this tar file as an
input into distro constructor
to do special processing for live media no longer make sense.
The webrev is here:
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~ktung/postrun/
There are a lot of files, but you can just skip:
- all the src/bootcd_skel/* files, since they will be going away very
shortly.
- all the src/postrun_scripts/*. Those are just postinstall scripts
pulled from SVR4 packages.
- src/livecd_dirs_list and src/livcd_links_list. They will be removed
along with the bootcd_skel files.
Thanks,
