      initial repo feature · ae7139f8
      Michael Shigorin authored
      We've got some parts of it in build-distro feature,
      and some went to dev feature for no real reason.
      
      But a bare installer might go without package base,
      and LiveCDs other than live-builder might find local
      repository useful given aufs2 root overlay.
      
      Now the overall scheme is more straightforward:
      - a distro:
        + asks that a package repo be included
        + cares to further add the packages to it
      - a repo feature:
        + pulls in sub/main for it to happen
        + provides genbasedir script to create repo metadata
        + supplements live feature with repo configuration

      full-view docs update · ddf0c5b7
      Michael Shigorin authored
      - toplevel README received some long-needed refactoring
        + lowlevel detail moved, well, to lowlevel READMEs
      - reflected more thoroughly that m-p is not about distros anymore
      - dropped features.in/00example/README.en: it's already out-of-date
        a bit, and there's no perceived need in thorough English docs so far
      - wiki article got split into parts and somewhat rewritten, links updated
      - mv doc/{CodingStyle,style.txt}

      official {distro,ve}/* support · d5a5941f
      Michael Shigorin authored
      This is quite a large-scale change since mkimage-profiles got used to
      baking distributions over the last year, and virtual environments are
      quite different, so e.g. image.in/Makefile had to be split in two with
      the main part of it moved into features.in/iso/lib/.
      
      Short overview:
      
      - features.in/Makefile: lib/ support
        (supporting VE images requires dynamic modifications
        to image.in/Makefile before starting the build;
        the most natural way to achieve that seems to use
        features mechanism along with makefile include dir)
      
      - packaging format related part moved into features.in/pack
        (should be better prepared for diversity either)
      - features.in/iso renamed to features.in/build-distro
      - features.in/ve  renamed to features.in/build-ve
        + NB: these could not be merged as e.g. features.in/build
          due to completely different script hooks
      
      - lib/image.mk renamed to lib/build.mk
      - image, config, log postprocessing moved downstream
      - added a sort of a topping in the form of lib/sugar.mk
      - assorted style fixups (like ifeq usage)
      
      - clean.mk: reliability fix (the problem was observed by Oleg Ivanov
        and me too but finally it did get the attention quantum)
      
      - reviewed, updated and extended docs
        + QUICKSTART: should be[come] a step-by-step guide
          (thanks Leo-sp50 for prodiving feedback)

      COMMON_PACKAGES and SYSTEM_PACKAGES · 774169c6
      Michael Shigorin authored
      It was clear that "common" isn't very apt for packages that
      will get *everywhere*, and became apparent when the need for
      a "base+live packages" variable arrived with powerbutton feature.
      
      So:
      - the former COMMON_PACKAGES are now SYSTEM_PACKAGES;
      - COMMON_PACKAGES act as "BASE+LIVE_PACKAGES".
      
      Note that SYSTEM_PACKAGES also got factored out from stage2 based
      features into stage2 subprofile itself; cleanups were due as well.

      .base rehashed, DISK_LISTS renamed, etc · 5f881522
      Michael Shigorin authored
      In particular:
      - .base is now generated from pieces (see image.in/Makefile)
      - s/DISTROS/IMAGES/g; s/CONFIGS/DISTROS/g (for clarity)
      - s/DISK_LISTS/MAIN_LISTS/g ("disk" was early m-p-d legacy)
      - introduced BASE_PACKAGES to complement BASE_LISTS
      - minor tweaks to Makefile (ARCH and DATE moved elsewhere)
      - libdistro.mk: dropped overlooked IMAGE_INIT_LIST copy
      - clean.mk: silly cleanup
