Steve McIntyre f9ca2237ff Re-split link.pl code out; add_files needs it too 2008-03-24 15:08:58 +00:00
Steve McIntyre 2f46e78135 * Pre-cache apt's package information in large lumps rather than walk
through it one package at a time. It's much faster. Closes: #470838
    Needs a small re-arrangement: code from tools/add_packages and
    tools/link.pl now moves into tools/make_disc_trees.pl

Steve McIntyre ad1906c27b Even more accurate size estimation; reduce how much we need to run mkisofs 2006-12-11 17:52:25 +00:00
Steve McIntyre a269a8fd4c Merge of changes from Steve's development branch to take us to
debian-cd version 3.0.0. Highlights:

  * Support now added for multi-arch CDs/DVDs, including mixed
    binary/source discs. Multi-arch discs should be bootable on those
    multiple arches, modulo boot-sector clashes. Extra support added
    in boot-i386 and boot-amd64 to make the 2 main arches happily
    co-exist.

  * Disc sizing is now much more intelligent - sizes are defined
    depending on the disk type chosen at the start, and discs are now
    filled exactly to those sizes while files are added rather than
    the old up-front guessing method. Equally, the metadata on the
    disc (Packages, Packages.gz, Sources, Sources.gz, md5sums.txt) is
    generated as much as possible while this is happening to make the
    sizing code incredibly accurate. Using this method of disc sizing
    means that customising discs should be much easier/safer - either
    add custom contents at the start and debian-cd will fill the
    remainder of the disc, or afterwards roll back the packages on the
    disc and add extras later.

  * Source is now treated as (almost) just another arch, with most of
    the special casing for source hidden internally. If asking for
    source-only discs, they will simply be built using all the
    available sources. If combined with other arches, the sources will
    automatically be chosen to match the binary packages. Meeting GPL
    requirements was never so easy!

  * Removed lots of old cruft to clean up the codebase:
    + non-US support
    + woody support
    + lots of old support scripts that have been made redundant
    + significantly simpler Makefile, much easier to follow
    + old boot-$ARCH.calc files for estimating boot-file sizes are now
      (obviously) obsolete and therefore gone

Ben Collins a2ccae3471 * Added two new variables, COPYLINK and APTTMP. I had to do this with my
setup which consists of an NFS mounted archive, the NFS mount was also
  used for the tmp space since it had room, and the iso images were
  created on the local drive, where it also had room. DOing symlink was
  crazy and didn't work too well, and the apt stuff could not be on the
  NFS tmp since apt's locking doesn't work on NFS. Problem solved, this
  should work exactly like it did before with these defaults though.
  COPYLINK basically makes a full copy of the files instead of hardlinking
  or symlinking.

Raphaël Hertzog 92504f2149 * Many modifications to support the inclusion of local packages
available in dists/$CODENAME/local/binary-$ARCH.
* Updated documentation in several places.
* Updated CONF.sh.
* Added an empty task.
