Revert "repo rework: Remove need for repos to be self-aware"
This reverts commit a2b2f4d642.
This reverts commit 602076ef82.
This reverts commit 5ffaf72c8a.
These changes break the build on Haiku and the ability to create repo
mirrors, for the lack of a replacement for the URL (an UUID was evoked
on the mailing lists, but not implemented).
We are due for a release soon, please don't break the build.
* See #12917 for details.
* Squashed to one commit to make revert easy if we
run into any issues.
* pkgman is now pre-attached to the 'current' repo
version within nightly images so they can be updated
by default.
* This shouldn't impact us keeping older sets of package
versions by commit hash for building older hrevs.
* There are XXX stubs with "Kill me". These will need
to be dropped after users are given sufficent time to
upgrade. We're dropping a previously required field (url)
so making this a slowish roll out.
* Makes the repos a lot less restrictive which should
help PM package building automation be a bit easier.
* Once this stuff smooths out, we'll add UUID's to the
repo definitions for duplicate repo detection.
Splitting the almost 70 MiB userguide package into one package per
language at ~4.5 MiB saves time and space when installing/updating.
At the online tool that manages the user guide pages, we have to
make changes to fall back to the online page if you try to switch
to a language you haven't installed locally. See #9322.
This is based on Jalopeura's patch to #10191, however, there are some
changes.
From the patch:
* Make userlandfs use separate "interface definition" files for each
filesystem, so the netfs package can provide a configuration file
* Add a short document on how to use NetFS
* Various fixes to netfs to make it build again (volatile atomics)
* The netfs_mount script for easier use of NetFS
Additional fixes:
* Move netfs_mount and the interface description file to data/ in the
source tree
* Use strlcat instead of strcat to avoid a buffer overflow
* Some parts were already applied in previous commits
* Now that system updates seem to work properly, put the haiku
repository config and cache file onto the image automatically.
* Adjust URL of haiku repository (it is currently redirected
to some other URL at download.haiku-os.org, but that will be
changed later).
* HaikuRepository rule: Create the repository config.
* HaikuImage: Add the repository config for the Haiku image. The
repository cache is not added, though (it would only be available, if
the repository had been built before).
Implements #10287. The Haiku repository is now available in Haiku by
default.
* PreprocessPackageInfo rule: Pull out new rule
PreprocessPackageOrRepositoryInfo which does the sed substituation and
optionally the filtering through the C preprocessor.
* HaikuRepository rule: Generate the repository info file (from the
given template). No longer do that in the build_haiku_repository
script.
* Add rule HaikuRepository to build a repository from a repository info
file and a list of package files. It calls a build_haiku_repository
script which does all the work.
* Add target <repository>haiku for building the Haiku package
repository.
It should be built via "jam -q @alpha-raw build <repository>haiku";
the build profile is only needed to activate all build features.
