Provide both build systems in parallel for now, to ensure that we work
out all the differences between the two. Some time from now, we'll give
up on autotools.
Meson tends to be faster and probably easier to read/maintain. On my
machine, the full meson configure+build+install takes a little under
half as long as a similar autotools-based invocation.
Building with meson is a two step process. First, configure the build:
meson build
Then, compile the project:
ninja -C build
There's some mild differences in functionality between meson and
autotools. specifically:
1) No singular update-po target. meson only generates individual
update-po targets for each textdomain (of which we have 3). To make
this easier, there's a build-aux/update-po script which finds all
update-po targets and runs them.
2) No 'make dist' equivalent. Just run 'git archive' to generate a
suitable tarball for distribution.

DW_AT_comp_dir is meant to contain the directory in which the compiler
was run
DW_AT_name contains the source file the compiler was told to use.
In the event that DW_AT_name is an absolute path, it is (obviously) not
meant to be computed relative to DW_AT_comp_dir. However, we did not
handle this correctly, and as a result tried to copy source files using
doubled-up filepaths.
The correct approach should be to use DW_AT_name on its own, in the
event that it is an absolute path.
See http://wiki.dwarfstd.org/index.php?title=Best_Practices.
This fixes debug package generation for many packages that use absolute
paths in their build systems... like CMake.

file 5.33 introduces a new MIME type "application/x-pie-executable",
which is used for relocatable binaries. makepkg ignored these binaries
and did not attempt to strip them.
Handle the new MIME type like the old "application/x-sharedlib".
Stripping the binaries with --strip-unneeded to keep relocation
information should be the correct thing to do.
file 5.33 also misidentifies actual libraries as PIE executables, so we
didn't strip any shared libraries, either. We now work around this bug.

Commit 8bec63bf92d8dd028aa88dbd5109c314cdb9ebea attempted to switch to
using -fdebug-prefix-map to set file locations in debug packages. It
make a few mistakes...
1) Adding debug C{,XX}FLAGS only worked if DBGSRCDIR was defined in
makepkg.conf. Fix this by falling back to the default value.
2) Using -fdebug-prefix-map altered a lot of assumptions about file
locations when copying source files into debug packages. This resulted
in lots of messages of failed cp in packaging output.

In commit 8b0d59b83a60eb504567590346119fe4cd891cad support was added for
storing the source files of binaries in debug packages. This made use of
the debugedit program which is part of the RPM package manager, which is
not very standalone.
The same effect can be achieved using -fdebug-prefix-map, an option
accepted by both the gcc and clang compilers which modifies how the
compiler itself stores the references to the source files rather than
requiring us to later edit the produced binaries. This also removes the
dependency on external programs like debugedit.
As a result of this change, source files will only be effectively added
for programs which actually use the exported CFLAGS. This is a reasonable
tradeoff as we expect our CFLAGS to be used rather than ignored. Upstream
software which do not produce useful debug packages are expected to fix
their build systems to respect the environment CFLAGS.
As a result of this change, the routine for extracting source filenames
from binaries had to be modified to derive the source file from the
final debug location, rather than the other way around.

Debug packages are fairly useless currently because the soucre files needed
for stepping through code etc are not packaged with them. This patch adds the
needed source files to the debug package and adjusts the debug info to look at
the /usr/src/debug/ directory for them rather than the build location. This
requires using the "debugedit" program which is provided as part of the RPM
sources.

We want to provide source files with debug symbol packages to allow easy
stepping through the program. This becomes difficult with split packages due
to the binaries in many of these sharing source files across packages.
There are (at least) two solutions to this problem. #1: ensure common source
files are located in the debug package for the package lowest in the dependency
chain and add dependencies to the debug packages so all require source files
are present, or #2: create one debug package for all split packages in a
PKGBUILD. The second is a more robust approach despite potentially creating
very large debug packages.
This patch creates a single $pkgbase-debug package and adds provides such that
installing $pkgname-debug will always work.

This reverts commit a79c0038ae84c38fe063bd7426a839f3c01c10e8.
I merged the wrong branch into master...

Using "-exec command {} +" systax exits on any error. Such errors occur when
running rmdir on a non-empty directory. Switch to "{} ;" syntax instead which
avoids exiting before the find command is completed.
Fixes FS#48515.
Note, we can not use "-empty" in the find command because it is not supported
by Busybox find, and the "--ignore-fail-on-non-empty" flag for rmdir is not
available on BSD rmdir variants.

These options were added before libmakepkg allowed passes like this to be
dropped in. I prefer only real core packaging tasks to be included in
makepkg and additional things like this to be dropped in by a user or
distribution that wants to support them.

Hi. This change allows makepkg to UPX-compress executables on Windows, but will probably affect some Linux packages as well (I'm guessing gdbserver, wine, mingw-w64).

To add a new packaging option, drop a file into libmakepkg/tidy that contains
a 'packaging_options+=('<option>') and a function that implements that
option. The function needs added to the 'tidy_remove' array if it removes
files or the 'tidy_modify' array otherwise.
