Hi Esteban, Hi volunteers,
I somewhat like this structure:
build.macos32x86/third-party:
cairo libgit2 libsdl2 openssl pkgconfig
freetype2 libpng libssh2 pixman
build.macos64x64/third-party:
cairo libgit2 libsdl2 openssl pkgconfig
freetype2 libpng libssh2 pixman
What's wrong currently is that e.g. build.macos*/pharo.cog.spur builds each
library in its build subdirectories
(build.macos*/pharo.cog.spur/{build,buildast,building}/third-party) and so
there is duplication.
Instead can we not organise it this way: Add build, buildast and builddbg
directories to each of the third-party directories and cd there to do the
builds? That way we build each library once only per production,assert or
debug build, and not once per specific build. This way we can share e.g.
the openssl library built from build.macos*/third-party/openssl between all
of the builds (stack & cog x pharo,squeak,newspeak), which is 6 times less
build effort.
