base.bbclass: Implement PACKAGECONFIG

base.bbclass: Implement PACKAGECONFIG

[Richard Purdie]

These enabled options to be specified in the form:

PACKAGECONFIG ?? = "<default options>"
PACKAGECONFIG[foo] = "--enable-foo,--disable-foo,foo_depends,foo_runtime_depends"

So that DEPENDS, RDEPENDS_${PN} and EXTRA_OECONF can be automatically
built from specific options. Those options can easily be customised
by the distro config or the user.

Based on some ideas from Chris Elston <celston@katalix.com> but with
an improved easier to use one line interface.

1) How can user check on target if his package was built with foo enabled?
   - is there some plan to keep this in ipk/deb metadata?
2) Is it possible to force some PACKAGECONFIG enable/disabled from
   DEPENDS/RDEPENDS, ie bar_1.0.bb with foo enabled, depends not only on
   abc recipe but needs abc also with foo enabled.

What if I want it in RDEPENDS_some-other-subpackage?

No plan. I'll state very clearly here for the record:

THESE OPTIONS SHOULD ONLY BE USED WITH ONE SETTING FOR A GIVEN DISTRO

(otherwise the package feeds would be inconsistent).

There is no realistic way we can do anything else. We're giving users a
smoking gun here, if they chose to shoot themselves with it, that is
their own problem.

There are a lot of good reasons people may want to configure things, I
don't think it acceptable to make it difficult but it does mean people
need to take a certain about of responsibility.

No. Distros (or the user) are going to be responsible for setting up a
consistent set of PACKAGECONFIG options.

As yet to code doesn't support it but it could be extended to quite
easily.

There are several things in that function I don't like, I found at least
one bitbake bug (exposure of the defaultval flag) and I think bitbake
itself should have some kind of appendVar() function...

So consider that code a starting point, not a finished end result :)

Cheers,

Richard
