The unfortunate thing is that we have to take care
for sessions, somehow; still there are only two for now
(LXQt and KDE5 Plasma Desktop) so this doesn't look like
a disaster just yet.

Thanks zerg@ for having packaged it finally.

Yet another "how did we miss this?" package
containing ubifs utilities, among the rest.

It was found out during the "from scratch" walkthrough
over http://altlinux.org/m-p with a new user that the
proposed test build run isn't clear regarding the proper
current working directory (wiki refers to QUICKSTART
copy over at http://git.altlinux.org, and this file has
been written with assumption that it's being read from
within the repository's toplevel directory; the resulting
context isn't consistent in that regard).

e.g., `make distro/icewm' instead of `make distro/icewm.iso'
would be "successful" as there's a corresponding target indeed
but the "success" would just mean building the configuration
without running the actual build.

Thanks cas@ for hitting this issue and reporting it.

PS: note that the initial flagless implementation turned out
    to produce false positives for e.g. `make distclean'.

This one reduces the amount of output that's only
interesting when one is actually watching the console
during builds (at least the early stage) -- these tend
to look boilerplate and be useless when inspecting the
output of a large batch build like [[regular]] one.

The __frontend variable was introduced to address the needs
of alterator-mkimage module: list the images available in
one column, purge the builddir.

Looks like we should consider other cases with redirected
stdout (cron builds, piped calls, etc) like fundamentally
non-interactive and behave the same.

So commit 3a8af6b5's
description is wrong now; the current cleanup rules are:

- if CLEAN=0 or DEBUG>1, don't do it;
- if CHECK or REPORT is set, don't do it;
- otherwise if at least one of the following conditions is true:
  + there's more than one target being built in a row;
  + stdout was redirected (cronjob, alterator-mkimage...);
  + metaprofile directory is read-only
  ...then do a distclean.

If that doesn't suit your needs, describe the particular
situation please.

Thanks cas@ for wondering aloud whether greppable output
is unsupported with `make help'.

sem@ noted that it had to be dropped from xfce4-full metapackage
as this package is built on top of gstreamer 0.10 and the API it
uses was dropped from gstreamer 1.0 so it's gonna die some day;
upstream recommends xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin but it's not suitable
to some of us, like Speccyfighter; well let's add the good ol'
plugin to sysv based flavour for now and see how it holds.

- support USB3, ACPI suspend

This one has been requested by a user over at #altlinux
and seems working, at least when built on p7/branch.

This one is a minimalistic one to test propagator
without having to add the debug stanza by hand
as well as to run stage1 build/test cycles faster
(would have helped me understand the recent thinko
with xhci-hcd vs xhci_hcd, for example).

...just like any other stage2 based boot target,
both for consistency and specifically for propagator
test image.

Yes these bits are related to distro/ prefixed images
still the overgeneralization in distro.mk didn't pay off
but rather hid a bug with the only boot/isolinux in use
having no dependency on use/syslinux (which is required).

Maybe this will get revisited when we have other kinds
of bootable images with other bootloaders (vm/ ones care
for themselves as of today).

Commit 657c0bf6 has silently added use/bootloader
to the base use/install2 target thus breaking
experimental distro/netinst; it seems better to
require *a* bootloader in the target that's been
specifically designed to cover the common case
(thus linked to by +installer shortcut) but still
to have our base lightweight and flexible.

This doesn't hurt the actual distros as these use
+installer of course.

Looks like it's been dumped in along with the rest but not
actually used in {make-initrd-,}propagator; the problem with it
is that snd-dummy.ko matches and pulls a bunch of unrelated
modules where these don't belong (grep -w wouldn't match
snd_dummy.ko though).

These can be found in (semi-)supported branches still:

- loop.ko:
  + 3.0.101-std-def-alt0.M60P.1
  + 3.4.96-led-ws-alt0.M70P.1
- aufs.ko:
  + 2.6.32-el-smp-alt31
  + 3.4.96-led-ws-alt0.M70P.1

ehci_marvell.ko isn't found in contemporary sisyphus/armh
kernels but let's purge it later during archdep rewrite.

NB: libusual.ko has been renamed to usb-libusual.ko as of p6
    (not to be found in p7 anymore), and nls_base.ko was in
    2.6.32 kernels as of p6 but not there in p7; purge these
    somewhere down the road.

This file has been floating around for quite some time,
and some of its contents are pure bit rot by now...

Drop the modules that don't exist as of 3.19.2-un-def-alt1
upon manual diff examination.

It wasn't sdhci_pci.ko back in 2.6.32 actually and it's
sdhci-pci.ko; so grep used by mkmodpack won't pick it up.

This has been missing for *so* long somehow, and adding some 200k
of modules for fast hardware that's widely available by now
looks like a deal.

Added USB Attached SCSI module just in case (or rather for weak
crc_t10dif symbols?).

There are a few ones that aren't needed for a one-time
environment off a LiveCD/Flash like a webkiosk; if you
happen to need a text-based kiosk some day, tell me so.

This one is based on live-flightgear of course.

clementine-codecs-* looks more appropriate than direct
lowlevel dependency list indeed; thanks cow@.

There's no excuse to miss it now that it's there.

The corresponding installer feature had to be updated first
following blkid(8) output format changes, but that's it!

- starterkits-20150312

Shame on me, gnustep mixin is only used in gnustep flavour
while wmaker one is used in both gnustep and wmaker flavours.

So the default serif fonts in regular-wmaker.iso were still ugly.

Consistent case and LAMP the '00s buzzword!

I don't know of [k]powersave interactions with systemd
and the rest of that ilk, let's be cautious and only provide
it for sysv-tde images which have been actually tested
by Speccyfighter who asked for this package.

Can't tell for sure but something seems to break
suspend menu option (hibernate isn't supported in
all of the regular builds/starterkits just yet).

These aren't going to survive use/cleanup/x11 anyways
(and weren't that generic in the first place); let root@
install whatever they actually need later.

This refactoring is aimed at both providing reasonable
alterator package set in server-ovz (and server-hyperv)
while purging the install-time modules from plain server
as these were useless without a frontend package like
the web-based alterator-fbi.

A few more additions proposed by Sluggard:
http://www.opennet.ru/openforum/vsluhforumID3/101671.html#182

...and it seems like LIVE_PACKAGES are asking for a pkglist;
let's switch to THE_PACKAGES for remainder while at that.

...as requested by Speccyfighter:
http://forum.altlinux.org/index.php/topic,34272.msg249405.html#msg249405

It used to run NM without any kind of applet which is
not exactly usable unless it's DHCP over Ethernet there;
provide connman and qconnman-ui (applets on the road).

This has been proposed for server-hyperv by lewellyn@freenode
last summer, looks like a reasonable default for all of the
server images as those interersted in bridge setup are going
to do a few more things anyways.

This image has been cleaned up somewhat thoroughly
regarding its installed package base but partitioning
has remained poorly generic with swap etc; it's now
been set to use 3/4 Gb as a minimum (to fit 1Gb VMs
or USB sticks just fine) with the only partition
created being root one; those wishing something else
are welcome to go ahead and partition by hand anyways.

It's not use/cleanup/x11-alterator in its entirety
but qt4-core is really *really* not needed there.
