[leaf-devel] new tool: setup-builddir

[Yves B. <blu...@us...>]

Hi all,

i have added a new tool: tool/setup-builddir and associate a makefile variable to it: $(BT_SETUP_BUILDDIR)

This tool help to uncompress source tarball in build directory.

In the buildtool.mk you can rewrite all:
	bzcat $(XXX_SOURCE) | tar -xvf -
or
	zcat $(XXX_SOURCE) | tar -xvf -

with

	$(BT_SETUP_BUILDDIR) -v $(XXX_SOURCE)

You can look at commit f515c8e for an example to use the new makefile variable.

setup-builddir tool can extract any tarball compressed in gzip, bzip2, lzip, lzop, lzma or xz format.

So in the futur try to focus on lzma or xz formats for the source tarballs (it will take less space in the git repository).

Regards,
Yves
