Hi all,
This is the second development snapshot in the 1.5.x series leading up
the the next stable release 1.6.
BuildStream 1.6 is mostly intended to be a transitional release, and
will backport some features which should help users to adapt their
projects in preparation to an eventual transition to BuildStream 2,
when that materializes.
What is BuildStream ?
=====================
BuildStream is a Free Software tool for building/integrating software
stacks. It takes inspiration, lessons and use-cases from various
projects including OBS, Reproducible Builds, Yocto, Baserock,
Buildroot, Aboriginal, GNOME Continuous, JHBuild, Flatpak Builder and
Android repo.
BuildStream supports multiple build-systems (e.g. autotools, cmake,
distutils, make, meson), and can create outputs in a range of formats
(e.g. debian packages, flatpak runtimes, sysroots, system images) for
multiple platforms and chipsets.
=================
buildstream 1.5.1
=================
o Support `buildstream1.conf` as well as `buildstream.conf` for
parallel installations.
o Lazy resolution of variables, this allows junctions to use
variables without requiring the project to have fully resolved
variables, while still reporting the right error messages if a
junction uses unresolved variables.
o Fix an issue where conditional statements were being lost instead
of processed at include time, only when the include happens in
project.conf
o Backport some artifact cache related structural changes, and allow
BuildStream 1 clients to interface with BuildStream 2 remote asset
caches, while still allowing BuildStream 1 to interface with its
own bst-artifact-server implementation.
o Added sandbox configuration for `os` and `architecture` to mirror
the added options in BuildStream 2, fixing issue #523.
