There are new dependency build scripts in /Dependencies -- if you update anything for the old scripts, please see if you can work out how to change them in the new scripts as well.

Right now they're set up to build 32/64-bit universal, but I think we can probably switch them to 32-bit only for now

At 32-bit universal, we're looking at 31 MB uncompressed of new binaries & headers (I haven't seen what happens after stripping and deleting headers for a release yet). I'm not sure that we'd be doing the majority a service by shipping 64-bit.

. The remaining changes that are required are
- figure out how to utilize pkgconfig so that dependencies from /opt don't get in our way

We were using pkgconfig with the old scripts, right? It looks like PKG_CONFIG is being set in the new ones; this is newly not working, or it wasn't working in the first place?

- work out how to compile in new stuff like gstreamer, sipe, gfire

It looks like we're doing a single configure and make for all architectures simultaneously? How does that work? When doing liboil and the gstreamer plugins, the old scripts do this:
case $ARCH in
                ppc) TARGET_DIR="$TARGET_DIR_PPC"
                         export PATH="$PATH_PPC"
                         export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$TARGET_DIR_PPC/lib/pkgconfig"
            export HOST="powerpc-apple-darwin"
            export NM="nm -arch ppc "
                # We add -DHAVE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE because otherwise the
# Altivec functions for PPC are defined as __vec_memcpy rather
                # than _vec_memcpy, which fails (liboil)
            export LOCAL_CFLAGS="-DHAVE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE";;
                i386) TARGET_DIR="$TARGET_DIR_I386"
                          export PATH="$PATH_I386"
                          export 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$TARGET_DIR_I386/lib/pkgconfig"
             export HOST="i386-apple-darwin9.6.0"
             export NM="nm -arch i386 "
             export LOCAL_CFLAGS="";;
        esac

what's the equivalent for a single cycle?

- actually package up a framework

Is this just a matter of calling universalize.sh once the dylibs are built, or is there a new challenge produced here?

Cheers,
Evan
