Hi,
I read the About page, the FAQ and the handbook through chapter 4, and
was under the impression that I would be able to choose which packages
got downloaded, built, etc. I then checked out the 7.0 branch and did
./scripts/Config. I chose Generic, Minimalistic and was therefore
expecting some screen or other mechanism to select which packages I wanted.
I then tried ./scripts/Download -list and it reported it (presumably)
was going to download 3279 tarballs. Since I don't want to wait for
hours and use up GBs of disk space for packages that I'll never build, I
was reluctant to do a ./script/Download -required without first knowing
what packages will be downloaded (hopefully not all). However, when I
tried, it started downloading packages that I don't need (or want) such
as dietlibc and embutils.
In addition, when I read that T2 "package configurations usually point
to the latest packages", I thought that it would still allow one to
select which package versions one could build with (since many times,
the latest is not the greatest--particularly in combination with other
dependent packages).
Is there a way to only select only certain packages and particular
versions of packages?
Joe
