Advanced usage of Mercurial Use an external tool to merge If you want to use tools presented on this page, MQ particularly has a tool to manage merges (when several commits overwrite each other and you have to edit the result manually) which will probably be useful to you. SliTaz proposes Meld, a light software that can do that well. After installation, tell Mercurial to use it if necessary by putting it in your ~/.hgrc:

cross

Cross compilation After SliTaz got new build tools for 4.0, we had to rebuild all packages and used this opportunity to cross compile as much as possible in the wok. There are many reasons: lots of user requests about Slitaz on ARM, prepare for the future and cross compile by default on our main build host aka Tank. Tank is a i686 machine and SliTaz targets i486 which is a more generic architecture and works on almost all X86 systems, so we enable cross compilation from a i686 build system f…

Recipes This document describes the opportunities offered by the recipes used by Cookutils to compile and generate packages for SliTaz and Tazpkg through the wok and tools. The recipe for a package is also used by Tazpkg to install/uninstall and provide information about a .tazpkg package. Each recipe begins with a comment in English:

Rootcd Descriptions of files contained on the cdrom. Syslinux/isolinux Syslinux and the (SliTaz) main bootloader - we use the isolinux version to start the system contained on the CD-ROM. Simple effective and configurable, isolinux was installed during the creation of the base system. The binary is named isolinux.bin and uses the configuration file isolinux.cfg. Here's an example of an isolinux.cfg using isolinux.msg to post the splash image and displayable help files via F1, F2, F3 and F4. …

Cookbook The Cookbook brings together information about the project management, operation and development of the distribution. It talks about creating packages, receipts, the wok, and scripts that start SliTaz. At the base of the Cookbook is the Scratchbook, this contains instructions to create your own LiveCD by describing the creation of the first ever public version of SliTaz in March 2007. The Cookbook is modified by the SliTaz community and steadily improved, it provides technical instruc…

toolchain

anonymous@undisclosed.example.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 19 Nov 2014 17:00:27 +0000

Toolchain The Toolchain is the set of packages used to build the entire system. It consists of Binutils, GCC, Linux API headers and the GNU libc aka Glibc. SliTaz has an annual development cycle, so the toolchain gets a huge update once a year just after a stable release. When the toolchain changes we must rebuild all packages to ensure quality and consistency.

Wok & Tools Overview Cookutils is used to compile and generate code (cooking) via instructions found in a receipt. It places compiled files in to a directory and calls upon Tazpkg to package said directory. The receipt found in a wok has a different “bottom half
