Allow packager to make service installation optional This changes the default, where on platforms that support it (Solaris, others?) the user would be prompted whether to install each service. Services are now installed automatically without asking unless the packager specifies optional=yes in the spec file. Inspired by part of QAS r892.
Add link to Debian dependency syntax
Add %depend processing for deb Allows specifying explicit package dependencies.
Add --vas-platforms option to pp that emits the compatible VAS platform IDs Also, add $enable to the service model defaulting to yes, that makes a service active at boot. (only honoured by rpm & deb for now)
Describe the to-be-implemented %require, %provide and Interface Names sections.
Add virtual service groups and a 'print-platform' helper function
Add --probe option that prints the local platform identifier
%post, %preun, %check scripts to exit 0 by default. Explanation: The normal behaviour of shell is to exit with the exit code of the last-run command. Sometimes this means the last 'if' condition, or a '&&' conjunction can unintentionally abort an install. This change effectively adds an 'exit 0' to the end of most scripts. To raise a failure, scripts must now explicitly call 'exit 1'. This will terminate the installation process on most platforms.
