Re: [ptxdist] local rule makefile include $(PTXDIST_TOPDIR)/rules/...

[Jon Ringle <jon@ringle.org>]

Hi,

I was able to solve my problem below :)
I defined my local rules file as follows in order to "fool" the
ptxd_is_pkg_makefile() function in
scrips/lib/ptxd_make_world_check_src.sh:

~/git/rootfs$ cat rules/systemd.make
#
# We provide this package
#
OVERLAY_PACKAGES-$(PTXCONF_SYSTEMD) += systemd

SYSTEMD_SERIES_SHA256   :=
0560688f87a3232377c24263245e401629da11de366e52e40275e142a5024268
include $(PTXDIST_TOPDIR)/rules/systemd.make

The choice of "OVERLAY_" prefix was arbitrary. It doesn't matter what
the prefix is before the *PACKAGES- line is as long as it is
"^[A-Z_]*" and not the same as the one found in
$(PTXDIST_TOPDIR)/rules/*.make file
