From 39c47d5972c9ffc01e21fca218d4078e469245b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Giachero Date: Tue, 11 May 2010 20:01:53 +0200 Subject: system/aufs: Added to 12.0 repository --- system/aufs/README | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) create mode 100644 system/aufs/README (limited to 'system/aufs/README') diff --git a/system/aufs/README b/system/aufs/README new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..89941a0e3e --- /dev/null +++ b/system/aufs/README @@ -0,0 +1,22 @@ +Aufs is a stackable unification filesystem such as Unionfs, which unifies +several directories and provides a merged single directory. + +If you build on a multicore system, add JOBS={core #} to enable parallel +compilation; for example, to start 4 build jobs simultaneously, do: + JOBS=4 ./aufs.SlackBuild + +You can build this for a different kernel than the one which happens to be +currently running - see the build script for details. + +Since there are no official aufs source tarballs, the download link refers +to a tarball containing the CVS snapshot of version 20080128. +After talking with the aufs developer, we learned that Monday's snapshots +are considered "releases" of aufs. That being the case, you may certainly +decide to use a later cvs snapshot than what we have tested, but there are +no guarantees from us that it will compile cleanly or package properly. +If changes in the upstream cvs repository necessitate changes to our build +script, please let us know. + +Note: The download link for the source tarball points to the SlackBuilds.org + server; this is because the upstream sources are only available via + cvs. -- cgit v1.2.3
