Tue, 04 May 2010 00:48:08 -0500 Rob Landley Delete the right temp file, and don't set ARCH when HOST already has the right value.
Mon, 03 May 2010 09:08:27 -0500 Rob Landley Updates to init.sh: only mount tmpfs on /home if / isn't writeable, and use /proc/cmdline instead of grepping dmesg to get console info.
Mon, 03 May 2010 09:06:32 -0500 Rob Landley Kernel config for aranym m68k emlator, from Charles Stevens.
Mon, 03 May 2010 09:05:35 -0500 Rob Landley Update hello world example native build.
Mon, 03 May 2010 09:04:47 -0500 Rob Landley Update mirror list for new subdomain names.
Sun, 02 May 2010 17:15:06 -0500 Rob Landley Update lots and lots of web pages for the project name change to Aboriginal Linux.

Fri, 30 Apr 2010 09:03:06 -0500 Rob Landley Ubuntu 10.04 turned gcc into a perl script wrapper that calls gcc.real, so host-tools.sh has to copy that if it exists. Add some simple error checking the the host toolchain symlinking while we're at it.
Wed, 07 Apr 2010 20:08:39 -0400 Eric S. Raymond Serious upgrade of the "What is?" section.

Mon, 12 Apr 2010 00:11:10 -0500 Rob Landley Update to uClibc 0.9.31.
Mon, 12 Apr 2010 00:04:11 -0500 Rob Landley Yank ugly STAGE_DIR adjustment and instead teach busybox/toybox bilds to auto-detect "bin" directory on install. (And while we're at it, don't build hello-dynamic on static-only system.)
Mon, 12 Apr 2010 00:02:32 -0500 Rob Landley NO_CLEANUP should prevent blank_tempdir from deleting stuff.
Sun, 11 Apr 2010 15:21:00 -0500 Rob Landley Move make, bash, and distcc builds into native-compiler.sh. (Break 'em out into sources/sections/*.build.)
Thu, 08 Apr 2010 23:09:13 -0500 Rob Landley Delete empty build/temp-* directories when we're done with them.
Wed, 07 Apr 2010 18:49:30 -0400 Eric S. Raymond Emphasis on virtualization.

Wed, 07 Apr 2010 15:50:03 -0500 Rob Landley Tweak to remove target list from the page (so it can't bit rot), and add an executive summary.
Mon, 05 Apr 2010 18:39:09 -0500 Rob Landley Jean-Christophe Dubois pointed out that if build.sh doesn't source config, it doesn't get things like NO_NATIVE_COMPILER.
Mon, 05 Apr 2010 02:06:00 -0500 Rob Landley Milton Miller spotted a bug where PATH was being set twice, and thus wasn't including both potential compiler locations at once.
Sun, 04 Apr 2010 05:48:50 -0500 Rob Landley Charles Stevens hit another "busybox flash doesn't build on Ubuntu 8.x" bug, this time because busybox grew a flashcp we weren't switching off yet.
Thu, 01 Apr 2010 15:59:15 -0500 Rob Landley Add zlib support to static-tools.sh so dropbear supports -C. Build dropbear -Os and strip the binaries to try to get some of the resulting size increase back.
Thu, 01 Apr 2010 02:39:54 -0500 Rob Landley Build zlib for squashfs, so we don't depend on the host having it.
Mon, 29 Mar 2010 19:02:55 -0500 Rob Landley Added tag 0.9.11 for changeset b9319aa31df8

Mon, 29 Mar 2010 07:48:57 -0500 Rob Landley Always make mke2fs, run-from-build.sh can't make hdb.img otherwise. 0.9.11

Sun, 28 Mar 2010 15:12:23 -0500 Rob Landley Upgrade to uClibc 0.9.30.3.
Sun, 28 Mar 2010 13:48:48 -0500 Rob Landley Call the static native binaries $PACKAGE-$ARCH instead of the other way around, both for consistency with the tarball names and because the busybox multiplexor only knows about postfixes (so it can work as "./busybox-i686 ls -l" but "./i686-busybox ls -l" will say unknown applet).
Sun, 28 Mar 2010 13:44:20 -0500 Rob Landley Fix the sparc build of strace.
Sat, 27 Mar 2010 20:31:21 -0500 Rob Landley Factor out the upload into a shell function, and upload each package's results as available, rather than waiting until the end to upload everything at once.
Sat, 27 Mar 2010 20:26:58 -0500 Rob Landley When USE_TOYBOX=1, don't try to truncate and append to a file that's in use. (Bug spotted by David Seikel.)

Fri, 26 Mar 2010 12:58:50 -0500 Rob Landley Bug spotted by Milton Miller: create stage tarball _after_ the compile smoketest.
Fri, 26 Mar 2010 04:57:11 -0500 Rob Landley Allow existing extracted source directry to be patched if necessary, even if tarball doesn't exist. (This lets a git bisect happen in situ under build/packages.)
Fri, 26 Mar 2010 00:52:05 -0500 Rob Landley Move sources/more/setup-native-build.sh to sources/native-builds/static-tools.sh, and add native-builds/hello-world.sh while I'm at it.
Thu, 25 Mar 2010 23:30:20 -0500 Rob Landley Move sources/native to sources/native-root
Thu, 25 Mar 2010 18:54:30 -0500 Rob Landley Move CROSS_SMOKE_TEST implementation out of simple-cross-compiler.sh and into sources/more/cross-smoke-test.sh, called from build.sh. Clean up comments a bit while we're there.

Tue, 16 Mar 2010 03:58:43 -0500 Rob Landley Finish previous commit: fix HDB and HDC and make run_emulator() a function. (And finally, if you say DEBUG=1 you get the emulator command output! Yay!)
Mon, 15 Mar 2010 06:01:36 -0500 Rob Landley Move distcc setup to dev-environment.sh. Fix bug where CPUS wasn't defined if distcc wasn't being used (leading to make -j with no limit, and OOM conditions in the emulated system).
Sun, 14 Mar 2010 01:18:27 -0600 Rob Landley Another bug Wolfgang Denk reported: make BUILD_STATIC=none actually work.
Fri, 12 Mar 2010 14:29:25 -0600 Rob Landley Slightly tweaked bugfix from Wolfgang Denk: clean out environment variables from the host that would screw up the build.

Mon, 01 Mar 2010 02:43:27 -0600 Rob Landley Add 64-bit mips target.
Mon, 01 Mar 2010 02:21:49 -0600 Rob Landley Add FORK=1 support to download.sh, and work around bash's $$ refusing to give an actual unique $PID for subshells by groveling around in /proc to find something usable.
Mon, 01 Mar 2010 01:03:04 -0600 Rob Landley Make extract use unique temporary directories so it's parallelizable.
Wed, 24 Feb 2010 10:31:10 -0600 Rob Landley Rename SKIP_STAGE_TARBALLS to NO_STAGE_TARBALLS (for consistency), and make system-image.sh use it instead of doing it by hand.
Wed, 24 Feb 2010 10:17:43 -0600 Rob Landley Don't need to blank STAGE_DIR when read_arch_dir already does.
Wed, 24 Feb 2010 10:13:36 -0600 Rob Landley Give bisectinate.sh overrideable SRCDIR and BUILD.

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 08:26:35 -0600 Rob Landley Idea from Johnicholas Hines: add a three second "read" before running hdc's init so the user can press a key to get a command shell instead.

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 23:47:17 -0600 Rob Landley INLINE_SYSCALL isn't there on all targets, so switch to stuff that is. (This is kind of disgusting, but the problem's already been fixed in -dev so either there will someday be a new release, or it won't matter.)

Sun, 10 Jan 2010 20:51:04 -0600 Rob Landley Poking at alpha support: add the same inhibit-libc guard that gcc screwed up for sh4, so it can get as far as the gcc bug "libm/e_exp.c:144: internal compiler error: in emit_move_insn, at expr.c:3275" building uClibc.
Wed, 06 Jan 2010 21:36:38 -0600 Rob Landley Redo library sequencing, add -lgcc before -gcc_s (because that's what gcc expects).

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 03:38:21 -0600 Rob Landley Largeish cleanup of ccwrap.c. Remove lots of uclibc-isms, put rawcc in tools/bin.
