Also, pre-process all package infos (not only the generic ones) and
define the macro HAIKU_BOOTSTRAP_BUILD, if building a package for a
bootstrap image.
* add HAIKU_PACKAGING_ARCH, which is set to the target packaging
architecture
* introduce support for generic package infos, which are package infos
that are the same for all architectures, except for the declaration
of the package architecture itself
* move package info files underneath architecture-specific or generic
folder
* BuildHaikuPackage rule: Create the script that contains the extraction
commands.
* build_haiku_package: Add extractFile() function (stripped down version
from build_haiku_image).
In build_haiku_image the functionality was mainly used to extract the
optional packages, which is no longer done. We still need it e.g. for
the Wifi firmware packages that want to be extracted.
It allows to control the compression level used for package creation
and update. The default (9) is *very* slow, so developers may want to
use a smaller level during the regular development process to keep
turn-around times low.
* Update MimeSet rule to use the MIME DB the build system creates.
* Add CreateAppMimeDBEntries rule and call it from Link for targets that
might be applications that need to be registered with the MIME DB. For
the target the rule is invoked with it creates a directory into which
the entries for the types to be registered are written. The directory
is associated with the target via the HAIKU_MIME_DB_ENTRIES variable.
* AddFilesToContainer: If a target is added that has MIME DB entries,
also add those to the container.
* build_haiku_package: Call mimeset for the package contents.
* Add global HAIKU_PACKAGES_UPDATE_ONLY build system variable, which is
set for the "update" and "update-all" build profile actions.
* Change the HAIKU_INCLUDE_IN_CONTAINER_VAR variable on packages to
HAIKU_INCLUDE_IN_PACKAGES for all packages. The variable is also
set for the "update" and "update-all" build profile actions.
* Introduce HAIKU_CONTAINER_INHERIT_UPDATE_VARIABLE on container
variable. If set, the contained variable will be set on the container
when one or more files in it are updated. It is set on packages so an
update of a file in a package causes the package to be updated in the
image.
* Introduce HAIKU_CONTAINER_ALWAYS_CREATE_DIRECTORIES on container
variable. If set, directories will be created also in update mode. It
is set on packages.
* Create rules (build/jam/PackageRules) and a script,
build_haiku_package, to build hpkg files.
* Move all rule invocations that copy files and created symlinks and
directories in the "system" directory from HaikuImage to
HaikuPackages, which creates a package "haiku.hpkg".
* build_haiku_image: Comment out adding the copyrights info to
AboutSystem for the moment.
