profile sensitive hooks

[Rob Canning]

scenario:
processing is big so we just provide basic package on cd
on the dvd we want to have processing-all-the-extras but processing is installed via the java hook
so... whats the best way of dealing with this

[Aymeric Mansoux (aymeric)]

That's possible to do but would require quite some dirty plumbing.

I would like to avoid it if possible as it seems to concern only Processing for now and Processing is supposed to be one of the main app in the liveCD, so how much extra MB are we talking about?

If the place is taken by stuff like movies or examples, I would suggest that you make a processing-data package, that would contain all those non essential files and that would be only listed in the DVD profile.

Regarding LP: #506921 - I moved the cinelerra hook into storage - too big for liveCD, but we want it on liveDVD for sure..

So we have the nightmare scenario of divergent hook requirements.

[Aymeric Mansoux (aymeric)]

hooks are now working as follow:

chroot_local-hooks-common
chroot_local-hooks-$PACKAGES_LISTS

the 1st one is always used, and the second one will be added to the 1st only if a matching profile is found.

so broth -o DVD will use both chroot_local-hooks-common and chroot_local-hooks-puredyne-DVD
