A new development release of BuildStream has been released
BuildStream 1.1.3 released
This is the forth release in the 1.1 development series of BuildStream,
brings in some new features, and is a bit more stable.
This release includes one minor API break which is mostly superficial,
the `bst --version` output has changed to only output the version with
no decorations (so if you are automatically parsing the version output,
which I doubt, you may have to change how that is done).
What is BuildStream ?
=====================
BuildStream is a Free Software tool for building/integrating software
stacks. It takes inspiration, lessons and use-cases from various
projects including OBS, Reproducible Builds, Yocto, Baserock,
Buildroot, Aboriginal, GNOME Continuous, JHBuild, Flatpak Builder and
Android repo.
BuildStream supports multiple build-systems (e.g. autotools, cmake,
distutils, make, meson), and can create outputs in a range of formats
(e.g. debian packages, flatpak runtimes, sysroots, system images) for
multiple platforms and chipsets.
=================
buildstream 1.1.3
=================
o Added new `bst init` command to initialize a new project.
o Cross junction tracking is now disabled by default for projects
which can support this by using project.refs ref-storage
New options have been added to explicitly enable cross-junction
tracking.
o Failed jobs are now summarised at the end of a build.
Use `--verbose` and `--no-verbose` to adjust the amount of detail
given.
o BuildElements' `configure-commands` are only run once for
workspaces now, which allows for incremental builds.
Appropriate API for plugins is also exposed through
`Element.prepare`.
o The `cmake` plugin now supports building with ninja with the
newly added `generator` configuration option.
o `bst workspace close` and `bst workspace reset` now support
multiple elements. All elements can be specified using `--all`.
o The elements whose cache keys had to be determined during the build
are summarised at the end of the build.
o Fixed versioning introspection to be dynamic, many users use
a developer install mode so they can update with git, now the
version information is always up to date in logs.
This causes a minor API break: The --version output now only
outputs the version.
