From 24d3dc934dbc4ec979c6376d3ed4f07607ba7bcd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KonaBlend Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2015 17:52:39 -0400 Subject: Build: refactor fetch for contrib tarballs Fetch is now python-based and runs on the same version as does configure. The source script is make/fetch.py. New features: MD5 hash tracking for tarballs. Data values for all contribs added. Upon download, the file will be verified, and only then will it be moved into place inside downloads/ . Files that exist before the build system does a fetch will not be md5-checked. Multiple URLs for tarballs. Each module may specify one or more URLs and by convention the official HandBrake should be first when possible. Each URL is tried in sequence, and if it fails for any reason, the next URL is tried. If no URL succeeds, a hard-error is reported. Network fetching may be disabled via configure options. --disable-fetch will hard-error if a fetch is attempted. --accept-fetch-url=SPEC and --deny-fetch-url=SPEC offer an ACL-style mechanism using regex to match against URLs. For example, --accept-fecth-url='.*/download.handbrake.fr/.*' would skip any non-matching URLs. Build dependencies have been lightened. wget and curl are no longer required. TODO: GTK packaging should also be able to remove those deps. --- doc/texi/building/prerequisites.common.texi | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'doc/texi/building') diff --git a/doc/texi/building/prerequisites.common.texi b/doc/texi/building/prerequisites.common.texi index 30b1621f1..4c2088cd1 100644 --- a/doc/texi/building/prerequisites.common.texi +++ b/doc/texi/building/prerequisites.common.texi @@ -3,10 +3,8 @@ The following general tools are used on various platforms and it is recommended @itemize @bullet @item git - 2.4.3 @item python - Python 2.7.1 -@item curl - curl 7.21.4 (or wget) @item m4 - GNU M4 1.4.6 @item make - GNU Make 3.81 @item patch - Patch 2.5.8 @item tar - GNU tar 1.26 -@item wget - GNU Wget 1.13.4 (or curl) @end itemize -- cgit v1.2.3
