Comments on the ScummVM configure

In the following, I go through the ScummVM configure script sequentially, and roughly describe what each part does. Three of these sections are highlighted (dubbed sections A, B and C). These three do somewhat similar things, namely set settings based on _host_os, _host resp. _backends. They are the primary reason for this analysis: Right now, they are used in a very inconsistent fashion, people currently mostly guess when they decide which of the three sections to use. I would like to analyze what each is really good for. Also, possibly move section C further up (right after section B if possible), so that its settings also can affect detection of libraries.

The line numbers refer to this revision.

Anyway, here we go:

line 1

general setup, default settings, functions, etc.

GAP fun with group homomorphisms
First three examples that create groups G, K and a homomorphism hom
between them.
In the fourth section there is some generic test code...
Example abelian direct product:
-------------------------------
# G = any abelian group; for this one with a "complicated"
# representation.

How to rebase TheSin's dpkg pull request
# Add alias for TheSin's fink tree, and fetch it
git remote add TheSin https://github.com/TheSin-/fink
git fetch TheSin
# Setup local branch 'thesin-dpkg' to track TheSin's master branch
git co -b thesin-dpkg TheSin/master
# The first commit that modified @addlist in perlmod/Fink/Bootstrap.pm
# was commit 7b3cc78525. Thus we want to insert a commit *before*
# it that changes @addlist to span multiple lines.
# Therefore, we want to rebase interactively on the *grandparent*.

# This script generates a .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 and .zip for a GAP package.
# This requires that a tag has been set of the form "v3.1". You then
# may invoke this script like this:
# ./make_dist.sh PKGNAME 3.1
# and the rest happens automatically.
# If a checkout of the website repository is present, this script
# also copies relevant files (PackageInfo.g, documentation) there.
