configuration

much of the libdevuansdk configuration is done in libdevuansdk/config. here you can edit the defaults if you wish to do something your needs are expressing.

config file

vars and arrs are global arrays holding other global variables and arrays. this is required for zuper and helps a lot with debugging. if you declare new variables or arrays, add them to vars and arrs, respectively.

• os
  holds the name of the distro being worked on.

• release
  holds the release name of the distro. used for apt repos mostly.

• version
  current version of the distro being worked on.

• mirror
  a mirror holding the packages for debootstrap.

• section
  sections of the repo. for adding in /etc/apt/sources.list. separate them with whitespaces.

• image_name
  output name of the raw image. if you declare device_name, it will be added. arm-sdk does this.

• core_packages
  this array holds the core packages that will be installed in the bootstrap process.

• base_packages
  this array holds the base packages that will be installed later in the bootstrap process.

• purge_packages
  this array holds the packages that will get purged at the end of the bootstrap process.

overriding things

to be able to override specific unwanted functions of libdevuansdk, consider sourcing it earlier in the process of initialization.

it is possible to override default variables, or even functions without the need of editing libdevuansdk. share a patch with me if you wish :)
