Description Nirbheek Chauhan 2014-11-13 21:50:52 UTC 
The following three patches are self-explanatory minor functionality enhancements to Cerbero. Wasn't sure where to post them, so made an enhancement bug about them. :)

commands/wipe: Add an option to keep the downloaded sources during wipe

This can be a shoot-yourself-in-the-foot thing, but can also be somewhat useful.

recipes/custom.py: Add FIXME about moving .la static plugin files

While moving .la files, one must also update the libdir= field which contains an absolute path to the directory in which the .la was installed. Not doing so isn't fatal, but does yield ugly libtool warnings.

Fixing this isn't hard, but I feared breaking something so a FIXME comment is better than nothing. :)

cerbero/utils/git: Use 'cerbero_build' as the branch for applying patches

Using just 'build' as the branch name is asking for trouble. A namespaced branch name seems more sensible.
