Sun, 21 Nov 2010 14:02:05 -0600 Rob Landley If the cross compiler supports internationalization, bash tries to stick -lintl into the host compiler, which may not support it. And if you stick a "no" for the question into config.cache it retests. So stick in a "nyet", which isn't a yes (so -lintl isn't added) but doesn't trigger a retest. I hate autoconf.
Wed, 17 Nov 2010 22:09:19 -0600 Rob Landley Add rather a lot of Linux From Scratch 6.7 building infrastructure. Needs a bit more debugging.
Sun, 14 Nov 2010 14:45:01 -0600 Rob Landley Upgrade to new busybox release and tweak it so /bin/sh is hush, not ash.
Sat, 13 Nov 2010 15:43:47 -0600 Rob Landley Rip out the code gratuitously reordering libraries. It serves no purpose other than to break mixed -lblah and ../blah.a compiles that care about order.
Thu, 11 Nov 2010 06:37:04 -0600 Rob Landley Ever-fluffier FAQ.
Thu, 11 Nov 2010 06:36:33 -0600 Rob Landley Second try at a chroot-splice script, combining a root-filesystem and a control image into a chroot directory. (Useful for working out new control images.)
Thu, 11 Nov 2010 04:50:39 -0600 Rob Landley More chipping away at the LFS build. Add basic locale support to uClibc config and hit gettext about the head and shoulders with sed until it compiles despite autoconf still being utterly useless.
Thu, 11 Nov 2010 04:49:16 -0600 Rob Landley Move the manifest tracking from build-one-package to run-build-stages and make it actually work.
Tue, 09 Nov 2010 20:43:04 -0600 Rob Landley Move zapchroot to a slightly less inappropriate place.
Mon, 08 Nov 2010 21:24:58 -0600 Rob Landley Change control image scripts so they always build in build/control-images, and put the extracted and archived (squashfs) versions in the same directory the way the other build scripts do. Also use utility_functions.sh as appropriate.
Mon, 08 Nov 2010 21:07:36 -0600 Rob Landley Mounting a tmpfs on /dev means /dev/pts isn't there, so mkdir it.
Mon, 08 Nov 2010 21:06:29 -0600 Rob Landley Add zapchroot script that unmounts everything under a directory.
Mon, 08 Nov 2010 20:57:35 -0600 Rob Landley Add NFSv3 and devtmpfs to the kernel baseconfig.
Sun, 07 Nov 2010 15:57:32 -0600 Rob Landley Missed a bit of the name change.
Sun, 07 Nov 2010 15:55:26 -0600 Rob Landley Move sources/native-builds to sources/control-images, so the naming is consistent.
Sun, 07 Nov 2010 15:54:37 -0600 Rob Landley When building control images, the working directory should be in build/control-images.
Sun, 07 Nov 2010 13:59:42 -0600 Rob Landley functions.sh no longer includes utility-functions.sh, so adjust includes.
Fri, 05 Nov 2010 01:02:34 -0500 Rob Landley Config tweak to make uClibc work if you install the cross-compiler at /tools and build with CCWRAP_DYNAMIC_LINKER=/tools/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 exported.
Wed, 03 Nov 2010 13:58:56 -0500 Rob Landley The impactlinux.com domain unexpectedly went away, update the web page on
Sat, 30 Oct 2010 20:49:09 -0500 Rob Landley I can't reliably log into freenode anymore due to their strange mandatory authentication protocol being blocked by multiple ISPs, so I'll yank the reference from the web page.
Sun, 24 Oct 2010 04:17:15 -0500 Rob Landley More tweaks to bootstrap-skeleton, implement the first half of lfs-bootstrap for Linux From Scratch 6.7 against the new infrastructure, and tweak gentoo build to stay current with bootstrap-skeleton changes. (Now more common infrastructure, and requires package-list file.)
Sat, 23 Oct 2010 15:15:29 -0500 Rob Landley Fix uClibc so m4 and bison build against it.
Fri, 22 Oct 2010 18:36:01 -0500 Rob Landley Fix guest account.
Fri, 22 Oct 2010 18:31:51 -0500 Rob Landley Provide a mount point for root user's home directory.

Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:59:05 -0500 Rob Landley FAQ tweak.
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:58:14 -0500 Rob Landley Teach native-build.sh to pass in the name of the build control image.
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:55:46 -0500 Rob Landley Teach build-control-images.sh to call the new subdirectory format builds (with integrated patch directories and file trees and such).
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:54:33 -0500 Rob Landley Replace bisectinate's built-in tests with a test specified on the command line.
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:53:23 -0500 Rob Landley Dropbear's scp shouldn't call /usr/bin/dbclient, it should just call ssh out of $PATH.
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:52:23 -0500 Rob Landley Redo gentoo-boostrap on top of bootstrap-skeleton.
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:50:12 -0500 Rob Landley Update the common code, use "files" directory instead of build for subdir.
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 23:46:30 -0500 Rob Landley Genericize the noversion() regex a bit, and make sure to only apply patches in the sources/patches directory that end in ".patch".
Tue, 05 Oct 2010 21:18:36 -0500 Rob Landley Add generic native-build infastructure.
Mon, 04 Oct 2010 13:59:45 -0500 Rob Landley Start of a new Linux From Scratch build. Currently just extracts and patches the source tarballs.
Wed, 29 Sep 2010 15:18:08 -0500 Rob Landley Tweak uClibc config to add __progname support and debuggable pthreads.
Sat, 25 Sep 2010 14:10:23 -0500 Rob Landley Break out download_functions.sh into their own file.
Sat, 25 Sep 2010 13:40:04 -0500 Rob Landley Refactor the gentoo bootstrap build some more. Add "build" and "files" subdirectories, split each package build into a separate file, break out reusable shell functions into functions.sh. Flow control now init chrooting into run-build-stages.sh calling the individual package scripts.
Fri, 24 Sep 2010 08:36:21 -0500 Rob Landley Shuffle gentoo bootstrapping into a single directory (with files and patches subdirectories under that).
Thu, 16 Sep 2010 19:35:32 -0500 Rob Landley And e2fsprogs needs "--shared", not just "-shared". I'm not sure playing whack-a-mole with --long -> -long option conversion is the best way for the wrapper to approach this, but until somebody explains the logic of which longopts gcc accepts a single dash for and which it doesn't...
Wed, 15 Sep 2010 21:31:16 -0500 Rob Landley Add "file" to the bootstrap packages, and add a package.provided listing stuff that's there already for portage.
Wed, 15 Sep 2010 18:06:30 -0500 Rob Landley Tighten up test.sh usage message.
Wed, 15 Sep 2010 18:06:08 -0500 Rob Landley Mounting /dev/pts is useful.
Sun, 12 Sep 2010 19:21:42 -0500 Rob Landley Strangely, ncurses won't build shared libraries unless explicitly told to do so on the configure command line. (Yes, it's a library package. No, I don't know what they were smoking either.)
Sun, 12 Sep 2010 18:05:42 -0500 Rob Landley Milton Miller pointed out that tar | tar doesn't need gzip. :)
Fri, 10 Sep 2010 12:52:37 -0500 Rob Landley Typo fix for previous commit.
Fri, 10 Sep 2010 12:21:46 -0500 Rob Landley Fix overlay support: copy to original STAGE_DIR (not into usr/) and use tar | tar instead of cp -a (which barfs copying dir/file to a destination where dir symlink).
Wed, 08 Sep 2010 12:56:51 -0500 Rob Landley The header and news disagreed whether the file was "1.0" or "1.0.0", and since a 1.0.1 is inevitable, rename it 1.0.0.
Tue, 07 Sep 2010 03:48:35 -0500 Rob Landley Update the README for the download directory, noting simple-root-filesystem and the move to the "extras" directory.
Mon, 06 Sep 2010 15:14:02 -0500 Rob Landley 1.0 is out, update web page header.
Mon, 06 Sep 2010 00:57:38 -0500 Rob Landley Helps to get the version numbers right in the release message. (It was pending
Sun, 05 Sep 2010 00:47:39 -0500 Rob Landley Added tag 1.0 for changeset 479bcbb2775e
Sun, 05 Sep 2010 00:47:04 -0500 Rob Landley Screw it: cut a release and fix it all up later. 1.0
Sun, 05 Sep 2010 00:08:47 -0500 Rob Landley The point of armv4l is to be OABI, so have the config agree with that.
Sun, 05 Sep 2010 00:04:13 -0500 Rob Landley Smoketest was using the wrong run-emulator-from-build.sh path.
Sun, 05 Sep 2010 00:02:21 -0500 Rob Landley Yet more FAQ massaging.
Sat, 04 Sep 2010 17:55:54 -0500 Rob Landley Revert the kernel commit that broke mips64.
Wed, 01 Sep 2010 00:58:00 -0500 Rob Landley When BUILD_STATIC=all that inclues oneit.
Tue, 31 Aug 2010 18:25:34 -0500 Rob Landley Long overdue upgrade to 2.6.35, I'll fix the architectures this breaks later.
Tue, 31 Aug 2010 18:22:57 -0500 Rob Landley Teach gentoo-stage1.sh that /dev/null means don't create an hdc.
Tue, 24 Aug 2010 03:08:47 -0500 Rob Landley Remove toybox.
Tue, 24 Aug 2010 02:53:11 -0500 Rob Landley Remove RW_SYSTEM_IMAGE option. The gentoo-stage1 build shows how to setup a writeable chroot, and the FAQ says how to build a writeable system image. I'm not shipping two different system iamges, then I'd have to explain it and it's not worth the confusion.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 12:30:09 -0500 Rob Landley Fix mirror list.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 12:21:53 -0500 Rob Landley Remove patch that current busybox doesn't need.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:28:41 -0500 Rob Landley Fluff out the debugging section of the FAQ a bit more, explaining EXTRACT_ALL and NO_SANITIZE_ENVIRONMENT.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:27:44 -0500 Rob Landley Dereference symlink path segments in record-commands.sh.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:26:48 -0500 Rob Landley Break down and build separate patch package on target for gentoo stage 1.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:26:10 -0500 Rob Landley Building util-linux on target needs the program invocation name stuff.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:25:07 -0500 Rob Landley Add new "/src/host-info" file to target, with CROSS_TARGET and KARCH values.
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:22:38 -0500 Rob Landley Update busybox.
Sat, 21 Aug 2010 02:47:39 -0500 Rob Landley Break link (touch gets confused that /mnt is a read-only squashfs).
Sat, 21 Aug 2010 02:46:30 -0500 Rob Landley Switch from toybox netcat to busybox netcat.
Sat, 21 Aug 2010 01:33:02 -0500 Rob Landley Make sure PATH and CONSOLE are properly exported even when kernel command line doesn't provide the right data.
Fri, 20 Aug 2010 18:42:02 -0500 Rob Landley The ncurses ./configure stage won't detect a NO_CPLUSPLUS build. The c++ binding isn't needed to build a gentoo stage 1, so disable it.
Thu, 19 Aug 2010 12:50:32 -0500 Rob Landley Add a fallback if /proc/cmdline doesn't produce a console= entry.
Wed, 18 Aug 2010 17:11:32 -0500 Rob Landley Stab at updating bisectinate to use git clone into build/packages (instead of lots of redundant "git archive | tar x" passes, which pointlessly waste disk and cpu). Still issues around alt-patches and around LONG=1 tests (should be separate "expect" style and hdc control image style test levels).
Wed, 18 Aug 2010 17:07:13 -0500 Rob Landley Script to wrap up a control image and arch root filesystem into a tarball runnable on a host.
Wed, 18 Aug 2010 15:58:02 -0500 Rob Landley Teach build.sh to build host compiler if necessary for CROSS_HOST_ARCH.
Mon, 16 Aug 2010 21:38:33 -0500 Rob Landley If environment sanitizing lets TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX through, it should let HOST_ARCH through too. And while we're at it, separate inherited variables from locally defined ones.
Mon, 16 Aug 2010 21:05:18 -0500 Rob Landley Untangle static vs cross for ccwrap section.
Mon, 16 Aug 2010 21:03:59 -0500 Rob Landley Only make "bash" and "make" and such when toolchain has no prefix.
Mon, 16 Aug 2010 18:12:16 -0500 Rob Landley Missed one (PROGRAM_PREFIX->TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX).
Mon, 16 Aug 2010 15:00:35 -0500 Rob Landley Environment sanitizing screwed up the cross-compiler.sh wrapper. Fix it, rename PROGRAM_PREFIX to TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX, and put a guard around sources/include.sh so it's safe to include multiple times.
Fri, 13 Aug 2010 17:19:28 -0500 Rob Landley Ahem. Change the user of sources/native-root to sources/root-filesystem.
Fri, 13 Aug 2010 16:34:07 -0500 Rob Landley Move sources/native-root to sources/root-filesystem (mostly to make tab completion work better when navigating the source).
Fri, 13 Aug 2010 15:41:03 -0500 Rob Landley Fix case where build/packages/alt-package exists but tarball doesn't, and EXTRACT_ALL=1 ./download.sh gets called.
Tue, 10 Aug 2010 11:40:42 -0500 Rob Landley In the presence of multiple tarballs, use the newest one, so downloading a new version and extracting it before running cleanup_oldfiles should work now.
Tue, 10 Aug 2010 11:00:33 -0500 Rob Landley Bootstrapping gentoo portage tree. Download tarball, extract it, and emerge --sync. (Build rsync so emerge --sync works.)
Tue, 10 Aug 2010 00:17:48 -0500 Rob Landley Remove script that moved to "more" directory.
Tue, 10 Aug 2010 00:04:30 -0500 Rob Landley Add DEBUG_PACKAGE config variable to build just one package with CPUS=1.
Tue, 10 Aug 2010 00:03:38 -0500 Rob Landley Bite the bullet, I'm no longer really doing toybox development.
Sun, 08 Aug 2010 21:01:41 -0500 Rob Landley Polish the strip logic a bit.
Sun, 08 Aug 2010 20:57:58 -0500 Rob Landley is_in_list doesn't like "[" and "[[", thinks it's an unterminated regex.
Thu, 05 Aug 2010 13:10:07 -0500 Rob Landley If some clever sysadmin claimed 1024-65535 for local ports, punt.
Thu, 05 Aug 2010 12:31:01 -0500 Rob Landley Change how to filter out (currently) unusable busybox apps, and add mke2fs to force e2fsprogs build.
Thu, 05 Aug 2010 12:08:25 -0500 Rob Landley Apparently gentoo has mke2fs in a normal user's path, but not tune2fs. Sigh.
Thu, 05 Aug 2010 12:08:02 -0500 Rob Landley Three convenience scripts to bounce off build/system-image-$ARCH and run stuff
Tue, 03 Aug 2010 11:07:37 -0500 Rob Landley build-control-images.sh got broken out a while ago, remove redundant code from buildall.
Tue, 03 Aug 2010 11:05:43 -0500 Rob Landley Write-up on the command logging wrapper.
Tue, 03 Aug 2010 11:04:58 -0500 Rob Landley Teach environment sanitizing to allow STAGE_NAME override.
Mon, 02 Aug 2010 17:56:28 -0500 Rob Landley Use Scrt1.o when building a shared library.
Sun, 01 Aug 2010 15:20:00 -0500 Rob Landley Now that extract_packages is separate from setupfor, EXTRACT_ALL=1 should be less brittle. (If not, needs to be fixed, so remove workarounds.)
Sun, 01 Aug 2010 15:19:00 -0500 Rob Landley Move $BUILD/logs creation from record-commands.sh to include.sh so it gets reliably recreated when a user blanks the logs and re-runs.
Sun, 01 Aug 2010 15:16:58 -0500 Rob Landley Comment tweak.
Sun, 01 Aug 2010 14:40:48 -0500 Rob Landley Add lots of debugging HOWTO information. More to come.
Sat, 31 Jul 2010 21:49:01 -0500 Rob Landley Make extract_package directly callable, and do so where necessary.
Fri, 30 Jul 2010 13:54:10 -0500 Rob Landley Add blank_workdir and make setupfor and cleanup use it. This means you can run an entire build.sh with NO_CLEANUP=1 on.
Tue, 27 Jul 2010 02:35:33 -0500 Rob Landley Apparently this never quite got updated for commit 1116.
Tue, 27 Jul 2010 01:40:50 -0500 Rob Landley List more environment variables sanitizing shouldn't drop.
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 16:47:41 -0500 Rob Landley Bugfix for busybox 1.17.1 mktemp dealing with non-absolute subdirectory paths.
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 01:42:00 -0500 Rob Landley Make the environment sanitize logic slightly more robust in the face of multi-line environment variable values.
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 00:06:58 -0500 Rob Landley Yank toybox from simple-root-filesystem. (Still need it for patch in host-tools.sh)
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 00:05:38 -0500 Rob Landley Update to busybox 1.17.1 and switch to defconfig instead of trimconfig.
Sun, 25 Jul 2010 23:26:46 -0500 Rob Landley Automatically use simple-root-filesystem if root-filesystem isn't avaialble.
Sun, 25 Jul 2010 23:25:58 -0500 Rob Landley Add sanitize_environment to unset unrecognized environment variables.
Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:29:01 -0500 Rob Landley Add "make" to the default static list, for native-compiler tarball portability. (If you haven't got make working, it's hard to build it.)
Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:19:12 -0500 Rob Landley Remove a baseconfig symbol that SYSIMAGE_TYPE=initramfs sets itself.
Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:18:25 -0500 Rob Landley Make BUILD_VERBOSE a little more verbose.
Sat, 17 Jul 2010 14:19:39 -0500 Rob Landley Fluff up comments, and use blank_tempdir so re-running recreates all the images.
Sat, 17 Jul 2010 13:29:12 -0500 Rob Landley Comment tweak for cross-smoke-test.sh.
