since the external source tarballs (e.g. boost/download/*) add their
size to the repository each time a new version is committed, it's one of
the major sources of the growth of the repository.

the cws ause110 implements a different approach to deal with these large
binary files:

- a file named ooo.lst lists the tarballs required for that specific
source version with the first line being the URL where to find them

- the sh script fetch_tarballs.sh knows how to fetch these files via
http and places them in a directory TARFILE_LOCATION, by default
"ext_sources" beside the repository

- when building, dmake knows where to get them by looking at the
environment variable TARFILE_LOCATION

if not disabled by the configure switch "--disable-fetch-external", the
bootstrap step updates TARFILE_LOCATION according to ooo.lst.
using "--with-external-tar" sets TARFILE_LOCATION to a place of own
choice.

that's the idea, comments welcome...


Default TARFILE_LOCATION ("'ext_sources' beside the repository")
should probably not point outside the build directory (i.e., the
source directory, as the OOo build environment is not able to
distinguish those two; "build directory" and "source directory" being
used with their GNU autotools meaning here).


..and should thus be added to .hgignore

[...]

in the long run i'd like clean up the repository and have something like 
"build directory" and "source directory". first step for me in this 
direction is not to add even more stuff that's written into the repository.


tschau...

hi!

short reminder. ause110 is now approved and will hopefully be integrated 
to DEV300 soon.


see also the added paragraph at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Build_Environment_Effort/External_source_tarballs#Where_are_those_tarballs.3F
