      plant SHELL beacons into all config-forming rules · 79bb3f8d
      Michael Shigorin authored
      As noted in doc/assumptions.txt, the SHELL based target tracing
      only works for rules with recipes, even empty but present ones.
      
      The simplest thing to do is hooking "; @:" onto the rule's tail
      (one-liner with a non-printing shell builting "true" command).

      hide intermediate distro targets · a07959e2
      Michael Shigorin authored
      There are pseudo-distro targets that are useful to combine
      the needed bits and pieces for a few more different end-user
      images but that are useless themselves (e.g. desktop-base
      wouldn't even start X session before someone would have
      installed a window manager).
      
      Let's just hide these under the hood so that `make help',
      `make everything' and potential frontends don't bother.

      grub by default in "production" targets · 9c6824ea
      Michael Shigorin authored
      There's still an annoying problem (a race?) manifesting itself
      as installer bailing out between packages installation and lilo
      setup with X segfault in logs; while the culprit is not known yet,
      let's avoid that for most images by moving the bootloader request
      from the former "leaf" target (which noe became a "node") into an
      experimental server-systemd one.
      
      Thanks Leo-sp50 for bringing that to my attention again; see also

      distro/installer related graph cleanup · 62ab13cc
      Michael Shigorin authored
      As was duly noted by Leo-sp50, both server.mk and desktop.mk
      duplicate a few bits layered over bare distro/installer which
      happened to be both a dependency (thus should reduce redundancy)
      and a "real distro" target (well, it doesn't just work yet, need
      to provide networking and sources.list in install2 by hand).
      
      Fixed by moving a "node" to distro/.installer along with typical
      additions and leaving a bare installer as is by now; there's a
      need to get it working at least for DHCP/ftp.altlinux.org case.

      introduced THE_{KMODULES,PACKAGES,LISTS,GROUPS} · d6972a39
      Michael Shigorin authored
      As too many things started duplicating between distros proper
      and (e.g. corresponding) LiveCDs, it became apparent that a class
      of entities which end up working for THE_USER (not a sysadmin,
      and not a developer, just a Linux user) is in need.
      
      So THE_KMODULES will power installed basesystem and live image,
      while THE_PACKAGES, THE_LISTS and THE_GROUPS will participate
      in building those.

      lib/distro.mk: don't do localboot by default · 7e219c14
      Michael Shigorin authored
      distro/.base target used to pull in localboot syslinux config
      snippet which might be too early for some of the further distros;
      it's a quite fragile equilibrium which was shifted a bit by imz@
      (see #26606).  Feel free to reopen the discussion though, things
      might be tweaked so that localboot might be desirable on almost
      every image even if with lower priority...

      experimental server-ovz-netinst image · ad687508
      Michael Shigorin authored
      It's now possible to:
      - make distro/server-ovz.iso;
      - make distro/server-ovz-netinst.iso;
      - publish the former image's contents on ftp.linux.kiev.ua;
      - boot the latter (~17M) image and enjoy the netinstall ;-)
      
      The catch is that the stage2 (altinst file) location has to be
      hardwired into syslinux config snippet for things to happen
      automatically -- even if it can be specified manually in case
      of failure.
      
      The other catch is that currently a netinstall image is somewhat
      tied to the particular image it installs since stage1 kernel and
      stage2 modules must correspond strictly (the typical symptoms of
      the glitch would be missing mouse driver and weird "permission
      denied" errors during an attempt to partition the hard drives).
      
      It might be desirable to provide multi-distro netinstall image...

      server-ovz: rebase onto server-mini · 781c98bb
      Michael Shigorin authored
      The culprit was missing dhcpcd, although the rest
      of niceties already in server-mini were welcome to
      server-ovz either.

      initial repo feature · ae7139f8
      Michael Shigorin authored
      We've got some parts of it in build-distro feature,
      and some went to dev feature for no real reason.
      
      But a bare installer might go without package base,
      and LiveCDs other than live-builder might find local
      repository useful given aufs2 root overlay.
      
      Now the overall scheme is more straightforward:
      - a distro:
        + asks that a package repo be included
        + cares to further add the packages to it
      - a repo feature:
        + pulls in sub/main for it to happen
        + provides genbasedir script to create repo metadata
        + supplements live feature with repo configuration

      features.in/power: renamed++ from powerbutton · b85d82c2
      Michael Shigorin authored
      This feature was handling powersave already, so the name
      should be changed already.  Thanks sem@ for cpufreq-simple,
      there's now a compelling reason for that rename.
      
      Tweaked a few distro recipes accordingly.

      introduced conf.d/ for distro, ve config snippets · e8306860
      Michael Shigorin authored
      This was asked for by Leo-sp50 and torabora, and seems quite reasonable:
      let's provide means to keep at least some distribution configurations
      a bit apart, so that these can be considered more standalone in terms
      of hard warranted functionality but at the same time enjoying the common
      infrastructure.
      
      Considering lib/distro.mk: it's now experimentally pulled apart so that
      parallel development of different distro families can go on without
      major merge hassles.  *Please* don't abuse with massive copy-paste.
      
      And before you ask: this might get extended to allow for "private"
      out-of-tree configurations being included since apparently there
      are goals with no meaning outside of some very particular context...
      but otherwise I'd like to encourage getting reusable bits in-tree.
