1 Hi everyone,
2
3 == Brief summary of this project ==
4
5 This project is a continuation of last year's project, "Automatically
6 generated overlay of R packages". Its aims are extending overlay
7 creation and, more importantly, automated overlay maintenance.

9 For reference, the roverlay git repo can be found at [0], which also
10 provides some documentation [1].

13 == progress from Aug 21 to Aug 27 ==
14
15 * wrote new dependency rules as well as a comprehensive list of
16 dependencies known to be unresolvable
17 * config files: use per-repo categories by default (minor, yet notable change)
18 * extended the package rules:
19 -> add additional dependencies ("add DEPEND|RDEPEND <depend atom>")
20 -> ignore (R-)package-defined dependencies with "depres_ignore ..."

23 == Plans for this week ==
24
25 I'm currently working on getting the package mirror directory
26 collision-free. file collisions (can) occur when using multiple
27 categories and having a file that is available from more than one
28 repo.
