manual: use one-line titles instead of two-line titles (trivial)
Asciidoc supports two syntaxes for section titles: two-line titles (title
plus underline consisting of a particular symbol), and one-line titles
(title prefixed with a specific number of = signs).
The two-line title underlines are:
Level 0 (top level): ======================
Level 1: ----------------------
Level 2: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Level 3: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Level 4 (bottom level): ++++++++++++++++++++++
and the one-line title prefixes:
= Document Title (level 0) =
== Section title (level 1) ==
=== Section title (level 2) ===
==== Section title (level 3) ====
===== Section title (level 4) =====
The buildroot manual is currenly using the two-line titles, but this has
multiple disadvantages:
- asciidoc also uses some of the underline symbols for other purposes (like
preformatted code, example blocks, ...), which makes it difficult to do
mass replacements, such as a planned follow-up patch that needs to move
all sections one level down.
- it is difficult to remember which level a given underline symbol (=-~^+)
corresponds to, while counting = signs is easy.
This patch changes all two-level titles to one-level titles in the manual.
The bulk of the change was done with the following Python script, except for
the level 1 titles (-----) as these underlines are also used for literal
code blocks.
This patch only changes the titles, no other changes. In
adding-packages-directory.txt, I did add missing newlines between some
titles and their content.

s = mmap.mmap(f.fileno(), 0)
# Level 0 (top level): ====================== =

# Level 2: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ===
# Level 3: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ====
# Level 4 (bottom level): ++++++++++++++++++++++ =====
def replace_title(s, symbol, replacement):
pattern = re.compile(r'(.+\n)\%s{2,}\n' % symbol, re.MULTILINE)
return pattern.sub(r'%s \1' % replacement, s)
new = s
new = replace_title(new, '=', '=')
new = replace_title(new, '+', '=====')
new = replace_title(new, '^', '====')
new = replace_title(new, '~', '===')
#new = replace_title(new, '-', '==')

s.close()

=== Gettext integration and interaction with packages
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many packages that support internationalization use the gettext
|
|
|
|
library. Dependencies for this library are fairly complicated and
|
2012-11-16 05:54:19 +01:00
|
|
|
therefore, deserve some explanation.
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2012-11-16 05:54:19 +01:00
|
|
|
The 'uClibc' C library doesn't implement gettext functionality;
|
2014-08-16 15:47:22 +02:00
|
|
|
therefore with this C library, a separate gettext must be compiled,
|
|
|
|
which is provided by the additional +libintl+ library, part of the
|
|
|
|
+gettext+ package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the other hand, the 'glibc' C library does integrate its own
|
|
|
|
gettext library functions, so it is not necessary to build a separate
|
|
|
|
+libintl+ library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, certain packages need some gettext utilities on the target,
|
|
|
|
such as the +gettext+ program itself, which allows to retrieve
|
|
|
|
translated strings, from the command line.
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, some packages (such as +libglib2+) do require gettext
|
2014-08-16 15:47:22 +02:00
|
|
|
functions unconditionally, while other packages (in general, those who
|
|
|
|
support +--disable-nls+) only require gettext functions when locale
|
|
|
|
support is enabled.
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore, Buildroot defines two configuration options:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* +BR2_NEEDS_GETTEXT+, which is true as soon as the toolchain doesn't
|
|
|
|
provide its own gettext implementation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* +BR2_NEEDS_GETTEXT_IF_LOCALE+, which is true if the toolchain
|
|
|
|
doesn't provide its own gettext implementation and if locale support
|
|
|
|
is enabled
|
|
|
|
|
2012-11-27 12:59:17 +01:00
|
|
|
Packages that need gettext only when locale support is enabled should:
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2012-11-27 12:59:17 +01:00
|
|
|
* use +select BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT if BR2_NEEDS_GETTEXT_IF_LOCALE+ in the
|
|
|
|
+Config.in+ file;
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2012-11-27 12:59:17 +01:00
|
|
|
* use +$(if $(BR2_NEEDS_GETTEXT_IF_LOCALE),gettext)+ in the package
|
|
|
|
+DEPENDENCIES+ variable in the +.mk+ file.
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2012-11-27 12:59:17 +01:00
|
|
|
Packages that unconditionally need gettext (which should be very rare)
|
|
|
|
should:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* use +select BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT if BR2_NEEDS_GETTEXT+ in the +Config.in+
|
|
|
|
file;
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2012-11-27 12:59:17 +01:00
|
|
|
* use +$(if $(BR2_NEEDS_GETTEXT),gettext)+ in the package
|
|
|
|
+DEPENDENCIES+ variable in the +.mk+ file.
|
2011-10-10 10:46:39 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2014-08-16 15:47:22 +02:00
|
|
|
Packages that need the +gettext+ utilities on the target (should be
|
|
|
|
rare) should:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* use +select BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT+ in their +Config.in+ file,
|
|
|
|
indicating in a comment above that it's a runtime dependency only.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* not add any +gettext+ dependency in the +DEPENDENCIES+ variable of
|
|
|
|
their +.mk+ file.
