[PATCH] generic-build-script
- From: "Max Bowsher" <maxb at ukf dot net>
- To: "Cygwin Apps" <cygwin-apps at cygwin dot com>

- Subject: [PATCH] generic-build-script
Two generic build script patches.
Number 1:
In doing the httpd->apache2 thing recently mentioned, I found that g-b-s could use some tweaks to
support this better. ${BASEPKG} is currently used by the script in two different ways:
1): name-version of the base upstream package
2): name-version of the cygwin package
Of course, normally these are the same, but in my case they are not. Therefore, the following
patch changes all occurrences where ${BASEPKG} is used in the second sense to
${PKG}-${VER}, so that ${BASEPKG} may be redefined in my case.

Number 2:
Use "xargs --no-run-if-empty". I don't recall for what package I needed this, but I've had it locally
for some time. In any case, it is good bulletproofing.
