Bug:
18975 resolve should be able to restrict which packages are used as fall back
I've also changed our gate to use the new feature which gives a nice speed boost
when doing make packages.
So if I understand the man page right, the expected use for other
consolidations would be something like:
- Add -E to existing package build one time to generate a list of
external dependencies. That list gets saved to a file we
checkin to our gate.
Right, and that file also serves as the whitelist for the pkglint
action005.1.missing-deps check.
Hmm, I've never needed a whitelist for that in the X or CDE builds.
- Add -e with the file containing that list to our normal package
build process. Optionally leave -E there to bring to our
attention when we no longer need one of those dependencies.
Is that about right?
Yep, that sums it up pretty accurately. The process seemed to work reasonably
well when I tried it on our gate and ON. One thing that might need to be called
out in the man page, I'm not certain, is that if you use -e and have missed a
package, you'll get an error because the resolve will fail. With the current
code, if you have an unneeded package and use -e and -E, resolve will report the
extra package, but will still exit 0. Breaking the build because of extra
packages in the list seemed overly restrictive, but I can change that if
desired.
Sounds reasonable to me.
