May I rename some variables?
I would like to rename some variables in the bsd.bulk-pkg.mk file to
make reading the source easier for me. In some of my last mails I have
already started to introduce (proposals for) variables called
TOPLEVEL_*. I would like to extend this naming to all other variables
that specify files to be created directly in ${BULKFILESDIR}.
Currently when reading code that uses ${INDEXFILE} I always have to keep
in mind that this is an absolute pathname, whereas BROKENFILE, having a
really similar name is only a basename.
Therefore I want to rename INDEXFILE to TOPLEVEL_INDEXFILE. (Similar for
some others.)
The change only affects bulk build users that modify these variables in
their mk.conf. I guess that no one does this, but I want to get some
affirmation first.
By the way, the bulk build framework is slowly getting into a form that
motivates me documenting it in the pkgsrc guide. But I first have to
understand all the other details.
