Current tasks in oi-userland

The unified build system oi-userland is subject to constant improvement.

Whenever you modify or update a components, please look through the following ongoing tasks:

1. Fix paths to make rules:
   Use macros for paths: $(WS_TOP)/make-rules and explicit paths should be replaced with $(WS_MAKE_RULES).

2. Remove any resolve.deps file:
   They are artifacts of an older dependency system and should be deleted.

3. Add REQUIRED_PACKAGES:
   If the list of required packages (runtime dependencies) is not present at the end of the component Makefile, use 'gmake REQUIRED_PACKAGES' to add it (see Best Practices).
4. Add build dependencies:
   Some build dependencies are not detected by the build system, look for instance in configure.ac and add the packages for REQUIRED_PACKAGES manually in a separate list.
5. For component depending on JPEG libraries:
   Make the transition to libjpeg8-turbo.
6. Look if the component is queued for update with GCC 7.1 and cherry-pick existing changes from this branch.
7. Doxygen update:
   Since the update to 1.8.13 the HTML documentation is generated differently.
8. Move binaries to 64-bit only:
   Libraries are still delivered as 32- and 64-bit but binaries are converted to 64-bit only. For autotools-based components set:
   CONFIGURE_BINDIR.64 = $(CONFIGURE_BINDIR.32)

Feel free to ask for help on the IRC or developer mailing-list.
