... before copying the new contents to the image. This caters to the
typical use case of updating an existing Haiku, making manual
intervention to get the new packages activated unnecessary. The downside
is that manually added packages will be removed as well.
Should already have been done back when the semantics for the
B_COMMON_*DIRECTORY constants was changed.
Currently old and new version behave the same. So this is just a
contingency measure ATM.
* This does intentionally break source compatibility, so that a review
of concerned code is forced.
* Binary compatibility should be maintained in most cases. The values
of the constants for the writable directories are now used for the
writable system directories. The values for the non-writable
directories are mapped to "/boot/system/data/empty/...", an empty or
non-existent directory, so that they will simply be skipped in search
paths. Only code that explicitly expects to find something in a
B_COMMON_* directory, will fail.
If additional parameters are specified, only those targets are built,
but under the influence of the build profile. E.g. "jam @alpha-raw build
haiku.hpkg" builds the package with SSL support, while "jam haiku.hpkg"
would build it without (unless explicitly enabled in UserBuildConfig).
* Remove support for the "common" installation location from packagefs,
package kit, package daemon, package managers.
* Rename the B_COMMON_*_DIRECTORY constants referring to writable
directories to B_SYSTEM_*_DIRECTORY.
* Remove/adjust the use of various B_COMMON_*_DIRECTORY constants.
I'm sure some occurrence still remain. They can be adjusted when the
remaining B_COMMON_*_DIRECTORY constants are removed.
* find_directory() and hard-coded paths use /boot/system instead of
/boot/common.
* The build system creates the writable directories in /boot/system
instead of /boot/common.
* The build system no longer installs any packages in /boot/common.
* The default is to use IPv6 addresses, but these don't quite work yet
in Haiku.
* Also, some debug messages improvements and fix a crash when the
payload has % inside it (parsing it as a printf string isn't such a
good idea)
* This was a script relying on a working /etc/profile, which may not be
there
* Instead, use GNU which, available as an haikuport recipe
* Since the command does not seem to be needed for Haiku to run (and
also because I don't know how to do it), GNU which isn't in the default
install.
* Typing "which" in a terminal still works, as that uses an alias
defined directly in /etc/profile.
Since we are using libraries originally intendent for user mode in kernel
mode providing them with some userland functions is inevitable. This
particular patch is to make zlib happy and able to call exit() when
its debug assertions fails.
This is a step towards fixing #10042.
When DEBUG is set BReferenceable::~BReferenceable() performs some checks
ensuring that the object is destroyed correctly. These checks require
information on thread stack, which is obtained by get_thread_info().
_get_thread_info() stub is added (actually, readded) which always returns
B_ERROR. Moreover, the check in BReferenceable destructor is modified
so that it does not fail when get_thread_info() fails.
