You can set additional option BuildScript
to define the path to the shell script that should be used to build packages. It will be executed inside the source tree of a package. The script should install the library to the output directory defined by the INSTALL_TO
environment variable. The code should be compiled with the -g -Og
GCC options.
If you just want to add some configure options then you can define the Configure
option of the profile.
The other option SourceDir
allows to index packages from a local directory instead of downloading them from SourceUrl
.
For advanced usage, see output of -help
option.
