Hi!

See patches as attachments. Globally cosmetic changes.

It is much better to put patches inline so we can comment on them directly.

Assumptions: - $startdir should be used as $srcdir and $pkgdir parent, as it could be useful, for example, to have $pkgdir in a tmpfs => Removed any reference to "$startdir/pkg" or "$startdir/src" => Relative paths to switch between $srcdir and $pkgdir should be avoided. E.g.: cd $srcdir/A patch [...] < ../../pkg/ is non-sense

I must be missing something here... where exactly are you changing $srcdir or $pkgdir not to point at $startdir/src and $startdir/pkg? You can have these directories as tmpfs if you really want but how does that need this change? I also like the use of $startdir/* because it is quite obvious what the startdir is.

- $pkgdir and $srcdir could contain namespaces, etc. and we shouldn't try to guess about $IFS => "$srcdir/A" instead of $srcdir/A (use of "")

Quoting paths with variable names seems a good idea.

- Still, lightweight means smater => Don't use "$_svntrunk" ${something} instead of $_svntrunk $something

Where exactly is this change?

- "folder" is prefered to "folder/" in our scripts, but we should not suppose a makefile doesn't use something like "${DESTDIR}usr/bin" => DESTDIR="$pkgdir/", "$pkgdir" otherwise

It would be a poorly formed makefile if it did this, but I have struck this once problem before. It is also readily noticeable when building the package so I'm not sure if this is really needed. Allan
