i am sure you once talked about it on the list, but i am not able to
find the reference any more, also
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/wiki/GAR%20Variable%20Reference
does not mention it. what is the difference when using:
* REQUIRED_PKGS_<xxx>
These packages are put in the depend file of the package and are
required during package installation.
I have a question about 'required' vs 'prerequisite'. Both words mean
the same thing. The difference in GAR is that there are build
dependencies and runtime dependencies. Most of the runtime
dependencies are build dependencies as well. Would it be hard to
replace REQUIRED_PKGS with RUNTIME_DEPS (or something similar) and
PREREQUISITE_PKGS with BUILD_DEPS? What if I prepared a giant change
replacing this in the whole code repository? :-)
Slow down... I could imagine something like
BUILD_DEP_PKGS ?= $(PREREQUISITE_PKGS)
RUNTIME_DEP_PKGS ?= $(REQUIRED_PKGS)
if($(PREREQUISITE_PKGS))
warn "You are still using PREREQUISITE_PKGS, please use the newer
BUILD_DEP_PKGS)
fi
Additionally, I would like to have PKGS in the name to be able to
define other
build time constraints with BUILD_DEPS, which defines make targets for
build-dep-%.
Best regards
