README for those who want to hack on yacs/debian-cd
|
|
---------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Organisation :
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The main source is in the Debian CVS. If you want to hack on debian-cd
|
|
and if you want to send me patches, please work on the latest version
|
|
available in the CVS.
|
|
|
|
http://cvs.debian.org/debian-cd/
|
|
|
|
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.debian.org:/cvs/debian-boot co debian-cd
|
|
|
|
If you want to discuss anything related to the debian-cd development, you
|
|
can contact me directly or, better, you can mail the
|
|
debian-cd@lists.debian.org mailing list where all people interested in the
|
|
debian-cd development are subscribed.
|
|
|
|
Technical details :
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The Makefile which is the main directory will be used to launch
|
|
each step of the install process. Try to comment each target of
|
|
the makefile so that other can know why it's here. If you need
|
|
specific programs (perl or shell scripts), please put them
|
|
in the tools directory.
|
|
|
|
The tasks directory will contain files listing packages (the
|
|
order in which package are listed is important, each package
|
|
added will be added to the current CD until it's full).
|
|
|
|
The data dir will contains useful data (not directly task
|
|
related) like the master file from boot-floppies and so on.
|
|
|
|
Each tool is self-documented, if you want to know what it
|
|
does read the sources (they are scripts).
|
|
|
|
Debugging YACS :
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to read more about what YACS is doing you can set
|
|
the VERBOSE environment variable to 1, 2 or 3 depending on the
|
|
level of noise that you want.
|
|
|
|
Some scripts generates their own log files in the temp dir. You
|
|
can take a look at them if you want to check for warnings
|
|
and so on.
|
|
Log files :
|
|
- $TDIR/$CODENAME-$ARCH/log.list2cds
|
|
- $TDIR/$CODENAME-SRC/log.cds2src
|
|
|
|
TODO list :
|
|
-----------
|
|
+ put the doc directory only on the first binary CD
|
|
+ a way to force the inclusion of packages (even broken)
|
|
+ possibility to add project/* to the last CD
|
|
+ check the source files on the mirror (with Sources.gz)
|
|
when doing make mirrorcheck
|
|
|
|
Bugs / Problems :
|
|
-----------------
|
|
* make list will not add contrib packages if you do not
|
|
select NONFREE too. That's because contrib is broken
|
|
without non-free. And the building process only allow
|
|
functionnal packages to be added.
