And
here's where the status of these packages can be tracked visually (ish).
Steps going forwards are:
Get spec files building for things on the toolchain
Ensure any needed patches from didbs are moved over
Rebuild all the `.rpm`s within the new root
Re-enable the dependencies
Rebuild again, checking all is well
`make check` all the packages
Snapshot of the filesystem at this point as a tarball for testing
Once we get to that stage, it's perhaps time to rebuild move everything to `/usr/sgug` - and begin discussions about build infra, where/how these packages are hosted - and what kind of "front end" we want to put in place (e.g. something akin to "yum" would be nice).
If you're contributing - perhaps it useful to add a post here with what you are currently working on and keep it updated, so we're not burning time working on the same thing.
