Hi
New version of this patch, based on current Next.
For completeness, the summary included in the first version:
As discussed earlier, I hereby submit a patchset adding extra metadata to all pak's.
First patch adds the new metadata fields "Summary" and "Services" to the meta-file templates and introduces the new macro INSTALL_INITSCRIPTS accepting a space seperated list of initscripts to install to avoid duplicating the list of service initscripts. (Once in the new SERVICES meta-data field and once by calling INSTALL_INITSCRIPT for each of them). The original INSTALL_INITSCRIPT macro is kept (and called by the new macro) for corner cases where non-service initscripts need to be installed and for use by non-pak lfs files as they currently don't have a SERVICES variable.
The second patch adds the new metadata for all pak's in their respective lfs files. As I went over all pak lfs files, I did not encounter any corner cases hence all calls to INSTALL_INITSCRIPT are replaced by calls to the new INSTALL_INITSCRIPTS passing the SERVICES variable as argument. The only special case maybe worth mentioning is Icinga, where a service initscript is installed by a make rule of the source. Hence no call to INSTALL_INITSCRIPT or INSTALL_INITSCRIPTS is required. But the service is included in the SERVICES variable to have it recorded in the meta- file.
This set does not yet contain changes in pakfire or services.cgi to actually do something with the new meta-data. Those changes will be posted shortly after acceptance of this patch.
Regards
Robin
