MAINTAINERCOMMENTPORTSCOUTMASTERDIRBINARY_ALIAS to Rename Commands
Instead of Patching the BuildConfiguring the Makefile is pretty
simple, and again we suggest looking at existing examples
before starting. Also, there is a
sample Makefile in this
handbook, so take a look and please follow the ordering of
variables and sections in that template to make the port easier
for others to read.
Consider these problems in sequence during the
design of the new Makefile:
Does it live in DISTDIR as a standard
gzipped tarball named something like
foozolix-1.2.tar.gz? If so, go on
to the next step. If not, the distribution file format might
require overriding one or more of
DISTVERSION, DISTNAME,
EXTRACT_CMD,
EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS,
EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS,
EXTRACT_SUFX, or
DISTFILES.
In the worst case, create a custom
do-extract target to override the
default. This is rarely, if ever, necessary.
