make.rc

#@ make.rc defines the set of features and values used.
#@ Reading INSTALL (first) is beneficial.
#@
#@ - Choosing a predefined CONFIG= disallows further option fine-tuning.
#@   (With some exceptions, e.g., OPT_DEBUG.)
#@
#@ - Specifying settings on the command line will take precedence over
#@   the variables in here (correctly triggering build updates as
#@   necessary, too).
#@
#@ - Features / options have an OPT_ prefix and usually need to be
#@   assigned a boolean value, as in OPT_IDNA=yes.  Booleans are 1/0,
#@   y/n, true/false, yes/no and on/off (case does not matter).
#@
#@   The value "require" is also a true boolean, but will in addition
#@   cause configuration to fail if the requested condition cannot be
#@   satisfied.  "require" is available where documented only.
#@
#@ - Values have a VAL_ prefix, and are assigned strings, for example
#@       VAL_PREFIX="/usr/local"
#@
#@   Values which are only used during configuration, building, and / or
#@   installation have no prefix, e.g., DESTDIR, VERBOSE, awk, sed etc.
#@   Strings which contain whitespace need to be quoted.
#@
#@   Some values offer "multiple choice" values, e.g., VAL_RANDOM
#@   (without accompanying feature option) and VAL_IDNA (with OPT_IDNA).
#@   They address the case of different implementations, and can then be
#@   used to choose the desired one(s).
#@   The value must be a comma-separated list of strings, for example
#@   "idn2,idn,idnkit", the case is ignored, but the order is important.
#@   The special strings "all" and "any" as well as the empty value
#@   are wildcard matches; if any entry in the list is a wildcard match,
#@   the entire list is ignored.
#@   The special string "error" will abort configuration once its list
#@   position is reached; this is only supported if documented, and not
#@   with an accompanying OPT_ (which then offers "require", as above).
#@
#@ - This file is parsed by the shell: it is in sh(1), not in make(1)
#@   syntax.  Evaluation occurs *after* it has been read, so command
#@   line overwrites take effect.  To use multiline values, escape the
#@   newlines on all lines but the last with a reverse solidus (back-
#@   slash), as in "LINE \".
#@   To embed a shell variable unexpanded, use two: "XY=\\${HOME}".
#@   The parsing is sequential top-to-bottom (nonetheless), so that
#@   shell snippets in a value can refer only to stuff yet defined.
#@
#@ - You may NOT comment out anything in here -- if you want to disable
#@   a feature, set it to a false boolean.

# It is possible to compile as "single-source", meaning that all source

# $VAL_MAIL(s) where normal system mailboxes reside are usually not

# create a .lock file!  The solution is to install a privilege-separated
# mini-program that has the sole purpose and functionality of managing
# the dotlock file in such situations -- and only then, as a last
# ressort.  With it dotlock files can be created for any mailbox for
# which the invoking user has read (or read-write) permissions, and
