The current postmarketOS port does not do Hildon/Maemo Leste justice.
Various features are missing or broken. We can't even upgrade to the newest
version, because of packaging issues that can't easily be resolved. And
nobody is maintaining it currently. So for the people who want to use
Hildon, please use Maemo Leste (https://maemo-leste.github.io/).
If somebody is willing to invest a lot of time for a new postmarketOS
port of Hildon/Maemo Leste, let us know!
[skip-ci]: just downloading all kernel sources takes about one hour
and ollieparanoid wants to merge it now. This already ran
successfully with [ci:skip-build] and [ci:skip-vercheck].
Many device ports install extra modules-load.conf/modprobe.conf
configurations. Simplify this a bit by installing these automatically
to appropriate locations in the file system.
Left over from unity 8, which has been removed from pmaports earlier.
umockdev depends on libgudev in Alpine, which has been moved from main
to community. As of writing, there is no armhf package, so the upstream
compatibility test is failing. There is no point in waiting until the
package was built though, since nobody is currently using in in
pmaports.
CONFIG_INPUT_UINPUT is needed for !1012
- linter fix: remove unneeded HOSTCC
- use downstreamkernel_package
- _abi_release was never used
- this package is only enabled for aarch64, so always use
modules_install dbts_install in package(), remove redundant
switch case
The point of this program was to have something to play with once weston
boots up. It does not make sense to ship this with
postmarketos-ui-plasma-mobile.

nokia-n900 is the last user of linux-postmarketos-stable.
Let's keep it as-is temporarily until nokia-n900 has been migrated
to Alpine's linux-lts or a custom kernel.
Disable it on all other architectures to make it clear
that it is obsolete.
[ci:skip-vercheck]: no changes, only disabled architectures
- Update to Linux 5.6-rc5
- Basic audio support on samsung-gt510wifi (speaker is WIP)
- Initial support for samsung-matissevewifi
- Enable some kernel config options for elogind/Anbox/fbkeyboard
These dependencies don't belong here.
- iw: should be installed by the user themselves when wanted
- nano: should be installed by the user themselves when wanted
- pulseaudio: should be installed by the UI meta packages that need it
instead
- pulseaudio-alsa: should automatically be installed when both
PulseAudio and alsa are installed

Partial revert of 24fa68c9 ("avoid storing initramfs-extra twice").
Some people have (rightfully) complained that including the hash
in the filename of the initramfs-extra prevents the device from booting
whenever the boot partition gets out of sync with the boot image.
In general we should assume that those two are in sync, but there is
no need to unnecessarily break this if previously booting the outdated
extra initramfs worked just fine.
At the end, the hash is just an implementation detail for the caching
mechanism - we need it when (re-)generating the initramfs, but it does
not have to be within the filename. Instead, we can simply append the
hash to the file contents. GZIP will simply ignore the trailing garbage.
The boot partition will then look like:
$ cat /boot/initramfs-<flavor>-extra
<GZIP data>d3c7b449c6fc811d97351bbc46852b66 (the hash)
This makes the filename of initramfs-extra nice and stable again.
It also fixes a regression where the initramfs-extra would no longer
get symlinked by "pmbootstrap export" (I was going to fix that in
pmbootstrap but now this solution is more appealing...)
While we're at it: Make the script more resilient again by writing
to a temporary file first, then move it (atomically) to the real path.
We should do this in the UI packages that need it rather than in the
device packages themselves because for example Phosh doesn't need Ofono
but ModemManager
HOSTCC defaults to gcc, so we should only set it to override it
if we want to use an older GCC. Removing it avoids annoying linter
warnings caused by the HOSTCC="..." variable assignments.
Currently, every LCDs inside their (our users) pocket are driving 3.3V,
meanwhile the LCD interface is meant to drive at ~2V.
This turns our LCDs into a timebomb that is ready to trigger at any moment,
killing the display.

wileyfox-crackling was the only user of QCDT. Now that it is also
using appended DTBs, there is no need to generate the QCDT image anymore.
Another advantage of this is that mainline can then be only booted using lk2nd
(as intended), since booting it from the stock bootloader has weird side effects
(e.g. no WiFi/BT MAC address set).
That path works just as well as documented at
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstandardpaths.html (GenericConfigLocation) and
it doesn't depend on the user being created after the package has been
installed.
polkit rely on systemd, so we don't get correctly working setup.
This impact non-working backlight control from userspace and other
stuff.

At the moment we store the same initramfs-extra twice on the file system:
- /boot/initramfs-<flavor>-extra
- /var/cache/postmarketos-mkinitfs/initramfs-<flavor>-extra_<hash>
The second copy is exactly the same file, just with the <hash> (for caching)
appended to the filename.
We can avoid this by appending the hash directly to the filename
on the boot partition, i.e.
- /boot/initramfs-<flavor>-extra_<hash>
This is possible because we only reference initramfs-extra from the main
initramfs, and we already replace the path in it dynamically.
It will just let the main initramfs load -extra_<hash> instead of just -extra.
This saves a few megabytes of disk space on the rootfs.
postmarketos-ui-sway already depends on xorg-server-xwayland for
X clients. There is no need to pull in the entire X server including
all necessary drivers.
This saves ~84 MiB of disk space when installing postmarketos-ui-sway
on asus-me176c. X applications are still working fine through Xwayland.
Also remove explicit dependency on dbus - it is already pulled in
by dependencies like lightdm or elogind and nothing in
postmarketos-ui-sway depends on it specifically.
We need to generate the splash screens separately for each device,
because they are specific to the device's display resolution.
At the moment we do this dynamically during the installation process.
This has the advantage that there is no need to re-build all device
packages when one of the splash screen is changed (or a new one is added).
In reality, however, the splash screens do not change very frequently.
On the other hand, generating the splash screens dynamically has signficant
disk usage overhead for a minimal ("none" UI) rootfs:
The Python interpreter together with the necessary libraries requires
about ~60 MB of disk space on aarch64.
The splash screens itself require about ~100 KB for 720x1280.
This is not necessary if we move the splash screen generation into
devicepkg-dev, which is used to build the device package for all devices.
Another advantage is that we no longer need the (rather complicated)
caching mechanism for splash screens - so we actually end up with less
lines than before.
rootfs size for samsung-a5ulte ("none" UI):
Before: 450M
After: 388M (-62M)
After this change, every(!) device package needs to be rebuilt once.
No changes are necessary in device packages.
Kernel subpackages may contain a "-" (e.g. -kernel-mainline-modem);
replace it with an underscore to make sure that we find the
kernel-specific variables in deviceinfo.
