- This is an addon whose purpose is defined as :-
Netpbm is a toolkit for manipulation of graphic images, including conversion of images
between a variety of different formats. There are over 300 separate tools in the
package including converters for about 100 graphics formats. Examples of the sort of
image manipulation we're talking about are: Shrinking an image by 10%; Cutting the top
half off of an image; Making a mirror image; Creating a sequence of images that fade
from one image to another.
- None of the above seems to be a purpose related to a Firewall. Additionally it is
available in a huge number of distributions, including Linux, BSD,Windows,
MacOS X/Darwin, Solaris, AIX etc
- This package seems to be better used on a system in the lan protected by IPFire than
used on IPFire itself

- This is the legacy version of libnl - 1.1.4 and was released in 2013
- libnl-3 is the running stable version - 3.5.0
- Nothing in IPFire has libnl as a dependency. Large number of programs have libnl-3 as
a dependency
- libnl developer indicates that libnl-3 should be used if in any way possible and that
the legacy version is for situations that fail to work with libnl-3
- As everything in IPFire looks to already be using libnl-3 this patch is to remove the
legacy version

Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

dracut requires the cp command to be compiled with support for extended
attributes (xattr) which we didn't have due to the required libraries
not being available to coreutils at build time.

In QEMU, some processes seem to freeze/deadlock in their futex handling
which is causing the whole build process to block.
Changing the emulated CPU seems to work around these problems.

GCC can use ZSTD to compress debugging/LTO information in binary
objects. However, on riscv64, compiling zstd requires libatomic which is
not available at this point.
In order to make the build work, we explicitely disable ZSTD in GCC and
build ZSTD after libatomic is available.
Although ZSTD offers great compression, we won't have any disadvantages
through this change since we do not ship any debugging information and
at this point in time to not use LTO.

- Currently some perl packages start with perl, others don't have perl in the name
at all and one has perl at the end of the IPFire name.
- This patch series places perl at the start of all lfs and rootfile files for perl
packages in a similar way as is done for python3.

Hi @ all
I have a new add-on here which I use e.g. to bring partitions from mbr to gpt without data loss.
It is also well suited for rescuing broken partitions.
GPT fdisk (consisting of the gdisk, cgdisk, sgdisk, and fixparts programs) is a set of text-mode partitioning tools for Linux,
FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Windows.
The gdisk, cgdisk, and sgdisk programs work on Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) Partition Table (GPT) disks,
rather than on the older (and once more common) Master Boot Record (MBR) partition tables.
The fixparts program repairs certain types of damage to MBR disks and enables changing partition types from
primary to logical and vice-versa.
