Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
In commit v3.6.0-rc1~66^2 (CPack/RPM different package names,
2016-05-15) we forgot the non-uppercased fallback variable name
`CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_FILE_NAME`. Add it now.
Directives that are legal inside the %files section of an RPM spec may
contain a variety of characters particularly when specifying %caps which
can include +, _, and space. Watch for parenthesis to determine what
forms the prefix vs. path.
Fixes#14362.
Packagers may now set their own rpm package
file names or request that rpmbuild tool
chooses one for them. It also supports handing
of situations where one spec file may produce
multiple rpm packages.
Symbolic links that point to external
location no longer cause cmake to fail
with string out of bounds error but
are instead packaged as non relocatable
symlinks and print out a warning message.
RPM supports setting of default user, group,
file and directory permissions that will be
applied for files in package unless specified
per file/dir with attr setting
This is related to bug report 14714
CPACK_* variables expect component name in upper case.
CPACK_RPM_* variables expected component name to be
in same case as component name.
This patch adds support for CPACK_RPM_* variables with
upper case component names to match the convention with
CPACK_* variables and also preserves same case component
names for back compatibility.
The latter is now the preferred URL for visiting cmake.org with a
browser. Convert using the shell code:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's|http://www\.cmake|https://cmake|g'
CPack DEB and RPM generators were not used for some tests because
CPACK_BINARY_DEB and CPACK_BINARY_RPM variable were not set. Fix this,
simplify generator selection in CTEST_RUN_CPackComponentsForAll, and fix
bugs that were detected after tests were run.
Refactoring of content list that removes
use of find and sed to make listing algorithm
more clear and remove external dependencies.
Patch also limits man pages handling to
locations listed in brp-compress rpm script
by default - fixes bug report #14660.
RPM packages can contain symbolic links to relative paths - including
support for multiple relocation paths through generation of post install
relocation scripts. Add basic support with limitations described in
documentation.
Fixes mantis bug report with id 15169. Some
component specific attributes were leaking
to next component. Leakage handling was
implemented in different locations but there
were still attributes that leaked. Patch
encapsulates generator into function so all
current leaks are fixed and no future leaks
can occur.
In commit 3ec02547 (CPackRPM: Allow multiple path relocation prefixes
for one package, 2015-01-21) a regression was introduced that causes
parent directories of relocation paths to be incorrectly included in
the rpm. Fix this and make the test case more strict to cover it.
The change in commit v2.8.12~218^2 (CPackRPM protect '@' character in
filename processed in the spec file, 2013-07-05) was not necessary after
commit v2.8.12~439^2 (Add support for componentized USER spec file,
2013-04-01). The latter replaced ${VAR} references in the spec file
template string with \@VAR\@ references, thus protecting '@' symbols
automatically. This caused CPackRPM to break paths with @ symbols.
Revert the change to fix the behavior, and add a test case.
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE variable allows
the same project to support packages of different architectures
including noarch, native and foreign architectures.
BuildArch must only be added to a spec file for a "noarch" package or
rpmbuild will fail. For all others, the --target argument sets the
package architecture. In the process of Fixing rpm architecture, we
make it mandatory, adding a default value of native architecture (the
same as if no --target argument is present). Update the documentation
at the top of the file to make it mandatory.
The file(GLOB_RECURSE) call added by commit 3ec02547 (CPackRPM: Allow
multiple path relocation prefixes for one package, 2015-01-21) should
not follow directory symlinks, so make sure CMP0009 is set to NEW.
Improve the fix from commit v2.8.9~136^2 (CPackRPM: avoid leakage of RPM
directive from one component to another, 2012-06-05) to clean up more
temporary variables.
