Resizing storage on new images

7

This series works to eliminate the usage of populatefs in editing the storage partition prior to deployment on devices. Populatefs, to my knowledge, is limited to ext2-4 filesystems. Every example...

bulk sources downloader

2

This is a proof of concept bulk sources downloader. It extends `scripts/genbuildplan.py` with switches to output a package list needed by the specified project/device/arch to build. It then adds a...

busybox: init: post update script hook

1

This adds a post-update hook to buysbox's init to run a script from the new image. I've chosen to insert it between the update finishing making its changes and cleaning...

Optional systemd-nspawn support

6

This adds systemd-nspawn and machined to the image, locked behind the NSPAWN_SUPPORT distribution option. It's not enabled by default. Systemd-nspawn is systemd's chroot, container, and virtual machine manager. This has...

Initial implementation for selecting the OS's timezone via the settings addon. While it won't cause harm today, it's not intended to be merged until LE13 / Kodi 22P. Kodi 21...

xbmcgui.dialog.browse (https://alwinesch.github.io/group__python___dialog.html#ga2ece1ca620087a97233713710eac1b83) is used to select the backup file to be restored. `'??????????????.tar'` serves as the "mask" to filter the selected file to an acceptable format. In short, if a...
