'base' dist rename.
- Rework struct dist to allow for different types of dists. There are
currently three types of dists: DT_TARBALL, the traditonal gzipped and
split tar file; DT_PACKAGE, a package; and DT_SUBDIST, a meta-dist in
the tree that has its own array of dists as its contents. For example,
the 'base' dist is a DT_TARBALL dist, the 'perl' dist is a DT_PACKAGE
dist, and the 'src' dist is a DT_SUBDIST dist with its own dist table
that contains 'sbase', 'ssys', etc.
- Add helper macros for defining array entries for the different types of
dists to try and make the statically defined dist table in dist.c more
readable.
- Split the logic to deal with a DT_TARBALL dist out of distExtract()
and into its own distExtractTarball() function. distExtract() now
calls other functions to extract each dist.
- Tweak the percentage complete calculation in distExtractTarball() to
do the multiply prior to the divide so it doesn't have to use floating
point.
- Axe the installPackage() function along with the special handling for
the perl and XFree86 dists in distExtractAll() since distExtract()
handles package dists directly now.
- Add back in subdists for the X packages based on the split up packages
that XFree86-4 uses that as closely map to the X dists we used with
X 3.3.x.
- Lots of things like distSetX() and the X dist masks are no longer
#ifndef X_AS_PKG since we use them in both cases now.
- Make the entire installFixupXFree() function #ifndef X_AS_PKG, we only
call it in that case anyways, and it's not suitable for the X_AS_PKG
case.
- Add in X dist menus for the X_AS_PKG case.
Approved by: re
rather than installX11package().
- Add a perl psuedo-dist that installs the perl package. The perl
distribution is selected by default when a User distribution set is
selected. It is not selected when a Minimal distribution set is
selected. The perl distribution may be toggled manually in the
custom menu just as other distributions.
Approved by: re
as redoing all the menus to have proper, or at least non-hallucinogenic,
keyboard accelerators.
This requires my recent update to libdialog to work properly and will
probably also exhibit some other "interesting" behavior while the last
few missing screen clears are found (which is why I'm not going to MFC
immediately). At least now, however, sysinstall does not gratuitously
redraw random screens at the drop of a hat and drive serial console
installers out of their minds.
I backed-out the changes in -current and didn't touch stable at all (I
thought I had my patch order reversed, not what actually happened).
AIEEE! I can't even blame the crack for this one since I broke my
crack pipe a few weeks ago. I think sleep deprivation gets the blame
for this one.
Medal for noticing this one goes to: Jim Bloom <bloom@acm.org>
bringing in DHCP support. The only thing I left out were Poul-Henning's
newfs changes since I'm not sure if he's brought the rest of that support
into -stable yet. If it turns out that this is the case, I'll MFC those
changes too.
PRT servers since the extra PC98 servers have eaten all my flag bits.
Time to redo the way distribution masks are calculated, definitely, but
for now I guess people can always install those two components by hand
if they really want them.
o Incorporate some of Tatsumi's bug fixes.
o Remove the xperimnt and commerce distribution items; they haven't
been actual distributions for awhile.
o Try to sanitize the device checking code a little more.
o Cosmetic work on the network code.
1. Fix the last display bugs (I hope) by use of dialog rebuilds at stategic
points.
2. Clean up the distributions menus so that everybody (that's reasonable)
has All and Clear options for setting/clearing things en-masse.
3. Various attempts at display optimization.
4. Change the wording of the `Don't use Write!' dialogs to make them more
explicitly define when and when not to use the option.
1. Use new dialog menu hacks (no strings, just arrays of dialogMenuItem structs)
so that I can create composite menus with radio/checkbox/... items in them,
removing some long-standing UI bogons in various menus. This work isn't
finished yet, but will be done in two phases. This is phase one.
2. Remove all the script installation stuff. I never got time to document it,
it was arcane and it just complicated much of the code. There are better
ways of doing this if I want to do auto-driven installations later.
3. Remove much dead code and otherwise attempt to remove as much historical
grot as possible so that this code is easier to hack on. This is also
a two-stage process, phase one of which is now complete.
